BOOKS I HAVE READ

This is another first for this author. I rated this book 4 stars. This book is about a planet called Eden.  It has no sun, but some of the plants and animals can provide light and heat when it is needed.  There are 532 people on this planet.  They are all descendents of Tommy and Angela.  One of the things that I did not like about the story was how they kept repeating the words two and three times. For example, they would say pretty pretty, cold cold,  and things like that. It was kinda hard to understand the way they were talking at times.

This book has incest, horrible creatures, alot of inbreeding and different kinds of birth defects. If you are into this kind of book, then you will like this story.  There is also attempted rapes and murdering of people.  Kids born with club feet, they called clawfeet, and the ones born hare lipped were called bat faced.

I will not give away any spoilers, but I will say that this is a great book. But at the end they find out why nobody ever came back from earth to get them. I would highly recommend it. You will not be disappointed.  I will definitely read more by this author.
