What do you get when you take our current situation (Global
Warming, epidemics, over population, deforestation, etc…) and flip it with an
alien twist? You get an intriguing Sci-Fi adventure. The Benwarian race has
fled their dying planet. By not interfering with another race that lived on their
planet that was destroying it, they were forced to build a space ship and flee.
They arrived at Earth, a suitable planet for their survival only to find that
the dominant species here (humans) are destroying the planet with much of the
same disregard as what happened at their old planet. What are they to do?
This was interesting and certainly pulled you in pretty
quickly. The twists with Ship and Logis, the Leader of the Benwarians and their
connection, plus the drastic measures that Logis takes to ensure the Earth will
survive are obviously going to be controversial. I do think that some readers
forget that this is a Science FICTION book, and it only mimics the current Global
situation. I still think it is a story worth telling and the author did a fine
job.
