Beyond Earth Book Review 2

Entertaining Science Fiction

The book is well written and entertaining. There is much variety in terms of characters, countries, and situations. Some novel theories are worked out as somewhat surprising. Differing philosophies of various ones give good variety. The language is essentially clean and the violence is as expected with catastrophes and war. The book tours various planets and moons in our solar system in some interesting detail. To fully enjoy the book, one needs some scientific feel and concept of the solar system. It is science fiction of the future where much of the present world situation has dramatically changed, although many of the concepts are seen in current literature.
