A
team of scientists led by Colonel Evelyn Peterson is headed for Mars to scout
sites for future settlements. Earth has been devastated by a nuclear war and
much of it is now a wasteland. The future of humanity can only be assured by
setting up a new home on Mars.
Trouble
arises shortly after the flight has lifted off, trouble in the form of a
strange storm. This was something they were totally unprepared for and had
little hope of survival. However, they did and when they come out of It,
they find their destination is no longer Mars. In fact they are stranded back
in time.
How
they handle their new problems is guaranteed to keep you reading. This reader
found the combination of time travel, space flight, a visit to Earth’s past,
and living conditions irresistible. It kept me wondering how things would work
out and will there be future tales about this place and people as they settle
in. I loved the descriptions of the animal life and plants growing in various
areas of the place their ship landed.
This
is a story any sci-fi fan will truly enjoy. The talented author, Tom Johnson,
has crafted a believable world; new terrors for characters dropped into it, and
pulls the reader into the story so we become one of the members of this crew.
I
am very pleased to recommend Pangaea: Eden’s Planet as a fun read you won’t
want to put down. Not only will it teach us about our prehistoric periods, but
have us looking for other books by this imaginative author and wanting to know
what will happen next on Pangaea. Will we get to see it decimated by
meteor storms or will volcanoes split the large continent into smaller ones
that we would come to recognize as our homes of today?
Enjoy.
I sure did.
