An interesting sci-fi adventure. The story was a little slow at times but I did enjoy the concept and idea with the planets.

However, traveling and exploring a new planet proves to have it’s problems and challenges for the group of scientists.
This book, starting out was really slow. For the first 35% of the book it seemed to just trudge along and I had to kind of force myself to keep at it because it dragged. However, once the scientists started to run into the planetary problems it got more interesting and was one I couldn’t put down

The perfect blend of SciFi and Fantasy.
I particularly enjoyed the depth of backstory and character development. The details of humanities actions and their repercussions. So very easy to see and relate with. Seeing there is still Hope within us Beautiful.

Earth has gone to heck in a hand basket after WW 3 and the human race is slowly dying and will soon become extinct if something isn’t done soon. In 2125 , several scientists and experts in different fields were sent out into space to find any planets that could be a new earth. But being in close quarters, peoples attitudes and personalities clash , finding a planet that could be what they are looking for has people stressing over staying safe or learning more about the possible new home. But this isn’t an ordinary planet, when loosing 2 members of the crew and strands the others on the planet. They must put aside their differences and work together to survive.
