Today, our choice is Kristin Ward’s “Rise of Gaia” (https://t.co/7udwLGlvg4). Gaia is an exhilarating title, and so if we’re going to get through all amazing items in all the galaxies of sci-fi, we are not going to pass including this one as #1 today. Hidden in those pages, we found a contribution that is surely unique in its emotional content. If you have time for anything today, you ought to start searching how sci-fi readers reacted. In the words of one reader, “The Earth is sick. It’s being destroyed by mankind. On this I agree 100%. I’m pissed about it and I just live here. Think about if someone were slowly killing you. And you knew they were doing it, but you had no voice to fight back and were growing weaker and weaker. Wouldn’t that, you know, upset you a tiny bit? Well, Gaia is more than upset a tiny bit. Whew doggie. Just you wait until you see what happens. And poor Terran is stuck in the middle. I couldn’t help but compare Terran to Dexter’s sister Deb in the show Dexter. There are parallels to their individual situations and if you’ve seen the show and then read this book, I think you might agree with me. I will say no more. This is an intriguing read if you’re pizzed about what’s happening to our planet and want to see what Gaia would do if she were a real entity. A great YA Fantasy with roots grounded in the real world. I recommend.” Having checked out our review, you should continue the distance and search for your own copy. If not, keep following until we discover the next Asimov or Clarke. We know we’re getting close!
