Review of Discovering Planet Terrene
Discovering Planet Terrene-An Interplanetary Exit Saving Planet Earth by James C Reinhold is a science fiction novel. It is an interesting book that follows the adventure of Benjamin and his crew as they journey through time and space. They face different obstacles on their way, and they manage to overcome them. They meet former opponents who turn into allies, and secrets are revealed.
The book begins with the team going back in time. They land and take a look through the planet that they are in. The team videos the landscape of the planet. Two members of the team are told the reality of the situation. All the secrets are revealed, and questions are answered. The team also realized that there was another set of people that came to the planet with them.
The book had positives. Firstly, the book was captivating. The plot of the story is good. The beginning of the book is exciting. It grabs all your attention to it. The conflict and obstacles that the characters had to overcome were well written. The tension that was in the book made me have emotional investments in the characters and what they were doing. Secondly, the book was enlightening. There was a social commentary about the use of misinformation to manipulate people. Also, there were scientific theories talked about in the book, although it is a fictional book and it might not be accurate. Thirdly, the book was satirical. The book talked about how the government and humans are destroying the nature of the Earth. The greed of people in using up the resources of the Earth. It also discusses how the government spies on people and invades their privacy.
The book also had negatives. I could not wrap my head around some things. Firstly, how did the team know how far back in time they went? Secondly, some of the conversations between the characters seemed artificial. There was a lack of fluidity. Also, some of the conversations were dragged. The main point was repeated over and over again. Thirdly, after such a long time, how were they able to easily retrieve the machine? Also, how was it still in good working condition? Fourthly, there was no explanation for why the two teams attacked each other in the first place. Lastly, why were the animals on the other planet the same as those on Earth? It did not make sense to me.
I give the book three out of four stars. The book was delightful. Although it had some drawbacks, it was still a decent read. I have not read the other books in the series, which might explain some of the negatives in the book. The book was not professionally edited.
I recommend this book to people who like science fiction I also recommend the book to physicists as the book talks about wormholes and how they can be used to travel through space and time. The book is recommended to scientists. The book discusses other planets which have the goldilocks properties which the earth has and is needed for survival.
