THE ANTITHESIS: RENOVATIO
By Terra Whiteman
Genre: Grimdark Sci-Fi / Dystopian Sci-Fi
Civil war between demons and angels lies just on the
horizon. Alezair Czynri, member of the Purgatorial Jury, is thrown
into a world of murder, exploitation, chemical substances, betrayal and
bureaucratic red tape as he and his court attempt to diffuse escalating
conflicts.
Yet things are not as they seem. Ever since his induction
into the Celestial Court, Alezair has been treated with cool indifference by
the Justice Commander, Leid Koseling. A former prisoner of the Nexus
Initiative, Justice Czynri exists without any memories of his former life, the
consequence of being a slave merc for hire.
But Purgatory is strangely familiar, and slowly little
pieces start coming back. There might be a good reason why Alezair's boss keeps
him at arm's length.
My Review
This
book took me by surprise. Terra Whiteman won me over with her action-packed
introduction of the story, stimulating environment descriptions, and the
characters, Alezair Czynri and Leid Koseling. I loved Alezair's humor.
Whiteman’s
writing was easily captivating and the dialogue is nothing less than
entertaining. The plot contains suspense and wonder. I thought the court system
she created that set balance between the angels and demons was a fascinating
twist. I eagerly found myself blowing through this story waiting on the answers
to some questions.
I
was not disappointed at all and highly recommend this book to those who enjoy
the awesome mix of sci-fi, dystopian, and romance.
Terra Whiteman is a clinical scientist who writes dystopian
science fiction in her spare time. Her life is a dish of pipettes,
refractometers and immunossays, heavily seasoned with grimdark worlds and their
battlegrounds. She’s profane, opinionated, and if you met her you’d think she’s
really weird.
