Wow. When Penny reached out to me, asking me to read this book. I thought this was going to be a fantasy, maybe have a little romance, with a side of adventure. I did not expect it to have all this and more.
This is a Sci-fi story about a husband and wife. Who after giving up everything, are now renegade bad guys, alien guys. This is after they were actually wiped from existence, in order to save their way of life.
Only to have Jack’s father, who didn’t remember he had a son. Come to him for help. Something weird is happening on earth. Jack and Anna immediately leave to help.
I really enjoyed Penny’s easy yet thrilling world building. I felt that the easy to read wording, added to the reading experience. While also allowing the character build up to creep in. I thought it was an interesting twist to make a main character on the Autism Spectrum, with a side of ADHD. This was done with what I felt was truth and care.
When reading a new author I’m always worried about the action being overwritten in a Sci-fi story. This book seemed to have just enough to draw you in, while cheering for the characters. This also added to the thrill of finding out about the “Bad Guy”.
I was delighted to find out that this was the first book in the series which has five books total. Allowing us to continue this amazing story. I can happily say that I gave this an 8/10 rating.
If you want to check out “Jack and Anna Back To Winnipeg”, or have a teen who is into Sci-fi looking for a good read. I highly recommend checking it out now.
Thank you Penny for giving me this book.
