Bookreview: Ark Of The Apocalypse

 A fantastic read!

Summary

Earth is on the verge of becoming a dead planet.

The polar ice caps melted long ago, and it's been decades since the last raindrop fell.
Ocean levels rise a dozen meters, and forest fires rage on a global scale. Eleven billion
people dying of thirst wage water wars against each other as extinction looms.

Humanity needs a new planet. As Earth deteriorates, the nation states desperately work
together to build a mechanism for recolonization. And so the Magellan II is born, the
first starship capable of interstellar travel.

The future of the human race is tasked to ten thousand colonists-now homeless but for
the vastness of space and the decks of Magellan II. A distant planet offers hope of 
survival, but it's a strange watery world inhabited by giant reptiles. 

Humanity is starting over, but survival isn't guaranteed. 

My Review

What a wonderful book cover! 

As soon as I started reading this book, the story flows. It is a splendid mix of fantasy,
science and history. 

The places and characters were a bit complicated to know but anyway a truly fantastic
read!

I recommend this book to all fantasy lovers. I give with pleasure a 5 star rating.
