DISCOVER THE SECRETS OF TWO COLLAPSING WORLDS Editorial Reviews:Kathy Tyers. New York Times bestseller, Star Wars Universe:
The interweaving of numerous speculative "if this goes on" scenarios (alternate sexualities, climate change, evolution pressure) is Sons of Adamah's greatest strength.
Iwan Russell-Jones. Award-winning filmmaker, theologian, and author:
"Sons of Adamah" struggles with an issue that is deeply troubling the whole of the western world at the moment-the very nature and meaning of gender-and explores the theme in an imaginative and creative way, with sensitivity, seriousness and bravery.
Gene Kaye. Creator of Kentucky Fried Christian and author:
New hi-fi sci-fi at its classic best. The debut, dystopian future sci-fi novel from author CM Genton delivers the classic sci-fi goods with a today twist on the speculative world of tomorrow.
Bonnie Way. Creator of Koala Mom, blogger, and author:
Genton writes a fast-paced sci-fi novel that raises interesting questions about what the future may look like. "Sons of Adamah" is a stark reminder that we need to be stewards of the resources we have, to continue working towards global democracy rather than control, and carefully consider how we define ourselves and our roles.
Markus McDowell. Fiction author:
Thought-provoking, bold, and relevant. Genton's novel was a delightful surprise. If you'd like epic science-fiction that is also character-driven, you should enjoy the story, and if you're open to being challenged, you will find more than mere entertainment.
