Review: An Awesome Book, that could be an awesome movie

I read this book a while back but figured I would post a review on it.First off, I can easily say that this book won’t be for everyone, for a couple reasons. For one it’s Sci-fi, and not everyone enjoys a good sci-fi story these days. Two, the way Bush writes this book is as if it was meant to be a movie and not a book. That however, isn't a bad thing. As I read the book, I just imagined that I was watching it as a movie rather than reading it as a book and it made it twice as fun for me.It could use more proof reading but how many self-pubbed authors can really afford to spend thousands dollars on their book to make it perfect now a days anyway. As it sits now, it’s more than readable and enjoyable. You just have to look past the few errors. Creatively speaking it has an amazing story that takes you from mars to a far off world ripe with conflict and makes you question the grounds on which most sci-fi books/movies are based. I don't want to spoil anything so I won’t go into the story points other than saying: Just because something appears to be a monster, doesn't mean that they are in fact the evil ones.If we assume that Bush is fairly new to the novel writing scene (he doesn't have any other books posted on amazon at the time of writing this,) I can honestly say that for a first novel that this book is very well done and he is off to a good start. With time, I can see him putting out some really amazing stories. Personally, I plan to keep my eye on him.All in all, I would give Centauri a solid four stars, and I would say it deserves every single one. It’s a good book and a good story, and if it had a budget and the right people, it would make for one hell of a movie.
