Historia
July 25, 2234: The crew of the Adamura discovers the Anomaly. On the seemingly uninhabited planet Talos VII:a circular pit, 50 kilometers wide. Its curve not of nature, but design. Now, a small team must land and journey on foot across the surface to learn who built the hole and why. But they all carry the burdens of lives carved out on disparate colonies in the cruel cold of space. For some the mission is the dream of the lifetime, for others a risk not worth taking, and for one it is a desperate attempt to find meaning in an uncaring universe.

Fabulous story reminiscent of The Martian
Revisado: 05-27-23
Extremely well-written story, weaving psychological complexities against the backdrop of a stark alien landscape. The pacing may be slow for those looking an action-packed sci-fi tale but perfectly for this adventure. Alex, a grieving xenobiologist, agrees to a dangerous expedition to explore an unnatural phenomena. We follow his journey across a hostile wasteland with a disgruntled group of scientists.. Though written in third-person, it reads as if we are inside Alex’s head—seeing the experience from his perspective. I loved the story and can’t wait to read the next set in this universe. Outstanding

Interesting
Revisado: 02-06-07
I found Morgan's book to be a very interesting look at the Revolutionary War from a woman's perspective. The heroine is accidently pulled into the war. Morgan's style of writing is highly descriptive and can be too lengthy at times, but it does much to give a flavor and feel for the times.
The Christian viewpoint seemed realistic for that period of time. I did not find it bothersome, but gave me a deeper appreciation for the moral difficulties of the time.
Overall, I enjoyed the book. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a perspective of the Revolutionary War from the viewpoint of those living in the occupied areas.
