Another New Review for The Blind Alien!
Stopped by Amazon again today, and was presently surprised to see yet another new review for The Blind Alien! Perhaps the 99 cent sale is sparking new interest in the debut novel of the Beta-earth Chronicles:
The Blind Alien. The Beta Earth Chronicles by Dr. Wesley Britton.
By Amazon Customer
This is the first book of a series where “Robinson Crusoe” meets “Fringe” in a parallel Universe dominated by women because of a disease that kills 3 to 1 the males who are born. A history teacher is dragged from our world to theirs, gets blind through that transition and after escaping medical experiments he claims his position and rights in a world that tends to recognize him as an abomination.
This is the beginning of an intriguing storyline being told through different voices, making it even more interesting and vivid. A former teacher has to become a student again, a fighter, a lover, a husband, a father and eventually a leader of his own tribe. He has to conquer his own demons before he stands up and fights for his existence over a reality he didn’t choose.
Despite the numerous questions that lay underneath the story line about genders, equality, freedom, religion e.t.c. it never ceases to make you want to turn pages to learn what happens next. It’s a book that I would gladly have in my bag and read it while I was moving around the city through metro or a bus and maybe I could even blame it for missing my stop. There are so many different types of characters that it’s almost impossible not to find at least one that you can relate to and start following their journey to personal fulfillment.
Dr. Wesley Britton is a natural born storyteller who has worked so much on his craft that it seems effortless. Don’t let yourself be deceived by that. It takes a lot of effort and talent to create so many characters that can stand on their own, have your own, simple yet particular voice as a writer that can keep you on reading and reading and once you are done, you wonder… “That’s all? I definitely need to know what happened next!” (Get book 2 and then book 3 and then book 4 and keep your fingers crossed for book 5)
I would strongly recommend it for someone who enjoys sci-fi fiction and furthermore to the ones who are not familiar with the genre and are reluctant to read it. It’s a great introduction to it and its unique charms thanks to a gifted author. Buy it, read it and don’t forget to thank the author for the beautiful journey once you are done with a smile on your face.
