3.5 starsThis, to say the least, was an interesting read. I was looking forward to a heart pounding post-apocalyptic story and the people who survived. What was delivered? Well, I'm still thinking about it and doubt I'll ever completely understand the story compilation.The plot is simple:World War III happens, Earth is a wasteland of radiation, The main character Dr. Jack Castilo (based on a premonition from his now dead wife and with funding from her father) builds a structure designed to survive and resist the deadly radiation. He affectionately dubs it ""Eden." Survivors trek there way to the only hope in the area. The good Dr. attempts to deal with the multitudes. Of course, a few individuals come down with more then radiation poison, something molecular is metamorphosing in the DNA strands. He is frantically attempting to solve the puzzle. His findings are inconclusive and frustrating. Enter the villains and to be nemesis Mathias and his brude of followers who believe they should rule Eden. That's it in a nutshell.There is a great story line in this book, but for it to become completely engaging, it would behoove the author to take another look and clean-up the disjointed time line and perhaps go a little easier on all the adjectives. At times, I believed the book was more about overt descriptions than the actual story line.Who will like this? Post apocalyptic sci/fi enthusiasts. This is right up their alley.
