Latest Review: Creating Literary Stories: A Fiction Writer's Guide by William H. Coles

I'm glad to see that the author has put so much thought and effort into developing this universe and the different centuries in it. One of my favorite things about science fiction--any speculative fiction novel--is seeing into the author's creative mind both in the world building and the plot development. It might work as a standalone, but I'd rather wait until I've read the first two before giving this one a go. Thank you for the helpful review.

I was caught by this review. It sounds interesting. The plot is defined and you want to know what happened to the Earth. I didn't read the previous books, but maybe I'll do in the future.
Thank you for the review!

I like science fiction thrillers, and this sounds like one I can enjoy. I'm glad that the author offers a prologue that can actually make readers who have not read the last two installments to catch up with this. The maps and the drawings should also make it an easy read. Thank you for this wonderful review!

I wonder what could have burned out the entire earth in such a fashion. Thankfully, it will never get to that, but the plot seems worthy of exploration. Thanks for the review.

Ahhhh! It sounds like such a great book in so many respects but I'm one of the readers who would not like to read the graphic sex scenes. It's too bad the good Dr. Levin included them. I wonder if by doing so he's lost more readers than he's gained.

But you did such a good job of the review and depicting the plot that I'm sitting here wondering what caused the future earth to be burned up. Hmmm.

At any rate, I am thankful for your warning, enjoyed your review, appreciate the amount of time it took and am looking forward to reading even more reviews from you.
