I found Anomaly randomly when I was looking for something to read at lunch one day and consider it a fantastic purchase. In fact I enjoyed it so much that I'm currently reading Serengeti, another book by Peter Cawdron that I'm sure I'll be reviewing here when I've finished. The characters and hero of the book were vibrant, every day people, which greatly added to its charm and interest level in my opinion.Anomaly was a great science fiction book. I loved that it was so different from other books I've read. It was truly original and fresh. The writing was tight and compact and I was especially intrigued by how the world as a whole reacted to the discovery of Earth by an alien intelligence that was patient enough to wait for us to learn about it. It was a smart book, rather than an action novel and I found it really difficult to put down. If you enjoy intelligent, fresh, speculative science fiction that makes you think, this book is for you!I read to be entertained. If you share that view, then Peter Cawdron is definitely an author to watch for in the future.
