Title: Fun read with a good ending
Review: More than a few spelling and grammar mistakes, but an enjoyable story. A long read, but one of those “can’t put it down stories”
Reviewer: Pete Olson
Rating: 4.0 out of 5 stars
Title: good read
Review: Couldn’t put it down, just that the last quarter of it or so wasn’t quite as exciting as the rest- but still a good sci-fi read and full of plot surprises that kept me going

Title: Decent story, but preachy!
Review: Some hard science in this story, but a bit of preaching about the evils of humanity, climate change, capitalism, and the fact that some portions of humanity don’t want to be enslaved or killed by other parts of humanity!

Title: Good Novel… almost.
Review: This story was compelling and followed a group of well-defined characters in their struggle to save humanity from extinction.It is a terrific scifi yarn that suffered due to numerous errors throughout. Such errors interrupt the flow and disconnect the reader from the storyline.A great novel in need of the Editor Signal.

Title: Interesting idea, but poorly executed
Review: If you can suspend a bit of logic, the premise of the book has potential. But it is so badly written and the language is so tortured and ungrammatical that I felt like giving up several times. I eventually forced myself to complete it out of morbid curiosity. Like a few others who have reviewed it, I was left wondering whether it had perhaps been written with the aid of AI. Certainly, its creator didn’t care enough to subjected to any form of larger scale or lower scale editing.

Title: Earth is doomed. Humanity is saved…or is it?
Review: A space station is crewed by many different people that are all in cryostasis. They are supposed to be a reboot for mankind once mankind has destroyed itself and possibly the Earth too. Adrian is awakened to find that 6 of the 30 modules have been jettisoned! Adrian travels down to Earth to try and discover what happened to mankind and the Earth and find out why the signal to wake them up and fulfill their destiny was sent. However, things turn out to be worse than was originally planned for and also the origin of the signal was not from where they expected….!An entertaining novel exploring the self destructive nature of mankind as well as their penchant for scientific exploration. There is suspense, intrigue, unexpected threats, a mastermind who may have lost her humanity in trying to save mankind, sacrifices, terraforming and even romance that combine to make a fascinating tale.

Title: Depressing and confusing
Review: I spent a lot of time unsure of my surrounding. Things weren’t described well and I rarely had a solid mental picture of the environment. There was far too much unrealistic science in the book as well, whether it was sociology, genetics, or physics, I questioned a great deal of the book.The radiation wasn’t terrible, but many things just didn’t add up.It was very difficult to set aside rationality and believe that terraforming of a planet could be done in 400 years, much less 40 years!The casual way in which a planet with 1.3 or 1.5 (I forget) times earths gravity wouldn’t be very difficult for earth life to survive on without huge changes was hard to buy as well.Mostly, I just walked away from the book not seeing how there was ANY hope. Nothing about the end left me to believe that any of what they were going to do was even remotely likely to be successful.The characters were not particularly likable either. Their relationships felt wooden as well.I’d rather read more positive stories. If I am going to suspend my belief in rationality and pretend that lots of things that seem impossible or unlikely are possible, then I at least want to feel good about it.Nothing in the Genesis Signal made me feel good about humanity, individuals in the story or a hopeful ending. I just felt bad.I cannot recommend this book. There isn’t enough going for it. If you like dystopian stories that end with no hope for a better future then this might be your cup of tea, but it was not for me.

Review: Reads like it was either written by an AI or at best a formula driven flackWeak plot, constant Deus ex Machina effects, far fetched wooden stereotypes and definitely not up to BQM’s normal standardsI’ll Not be continuing in this vein, preferring the original BQM style rather than this insipid knock offStuff
