*I received an ebook
copy from the author in exchange for an honest review.*
First Impression: Post-apocalyptic
Sci-Fi is always intriguing.
Characters: These
are characters written by a man, which was evident as I read. Although not
necessarily lacking in depth, they are all tough and seem to be missing an
emotional element that makes up a human. Perhaps this was simply a product of
their surroundings.
World Building: I
enjoyed the concept of Keepers, the Circuit, and solar arks. I wanted a bit
more detail regarding Gravitum and what exactly happened to the Earth. Perhaps
this could be extended in a series.
Writing Style: Author
Rhett Bruno can tell a story. Hard science fiction is a little tough for me to
digest, but this felt more like a character story just happening in a Sci-Fi
world by chance. I appreciated that although I didn’t have a lot of backstory,
the author made it easy for the reader to just drop into his world.
What I Enjoyed: The
Circuit: Executor Rising is a good Sci-Fi debut. I’m curious to see where the
author goes in upcoming works.
Deal Benders: The
main problem is in a world of genius world builders, this book just doesn’t
measure up to the status quo. Not without potential, but ultimately a bit
forgettable.
Overall Rating: I
give this one 3 stars because I liked it. Not a bad start!
