Read Online Into The Vast (The Chronotrace Sequence, #1) Prepared By D.J. Edwardson Formatted As Paperback

is a real science fiction that is built on advanced yet reasonable scientific concepts at a future time when world is filled with hazardous environments, savageness, and inhuman technology.
The descriptions are so vivid and detailed that reading the book is not very different from watching a movie, The author has obviously put a lot of effort in exploring the boundary of the technology and its consequence on human life and ethics, Yet what determines the fate of the human race in the end is love, friendship, faith, rather than technology itself,

The concept of the esolace sometimes reminded me of the movie MATRIX, which makes us question about the differences between illusion and reality, or whether these are indeed two different things.
The science is not told as a matter of fact, Rather, it is gradually revealed through dramatic conflicts, and even mystery detection, In the end the plot became kind of complicated that I was sometimes confused by

what the hero was supposed to do according to someone elses plan for him, what he intended to do, vs.
what he actually did it solved the problem in a rather unexpected way,

Except some awkward phrases and repeated narratives, this book is on a par with most of the contemporary scifi bestsellers,

review “Into the Vast The Chronotrace Sequence” by DJ Edwardson is not my usual choice of book but I came across it on a review website and decided to step outside my comfort zone for once.
The story is about Adan, an experiment if you so will in a scientific institute of a fantasy world where humans are being abducted to for mind control in the wider sense I dont want to be any more specific than that to preserve your own experience and discovery of this world.

I was impressed at how long the author could keep the suspense and mystery of what was happening to Adan in the laboratory for so long, making me very impatient to find out where the story was going.
The story follows his aided escape across the Vast to human settlements and then continues with the occasionally literal, sometimes strategic battle between the powers behind the institute and its enemies.
Issues of trust and deception, bravery and moral principles come into play and despite really not being much of a science fiction fan I found myself compelled reading on.
The characters have been set up so carefully and convincing that their personal struggles are beyond common cliques and I ended up really caring for them, The battle scenes were brilliantly done, Edwardsons talent for description mastered this challenge effortlessly and there are enough turns and twists towards the end of the book to save it from predictability.

This was a great effort, not without minor details I would personally have liked to be different, such as the made up science vocabulary, but these things come down to personal taste and would not stop me from recommending this book to any fan of the science fiction and fantasy genre.
Good story, very tedious read, This was a captivating read, I mostly enjoyed it because it was so different from anything I've ever read before, Although the story starts out a little slow, the main character pulls you into his story and you soon find yourself wanting to know who he is every bit as much as he does.
The twists at the end were surprising, and although I sort of had an inkling about the big one coming, there were others that took me completely by surprise.


When Adan wakes up, he has no idea who he is, His memories have been erased, and he is a blank slate, The reader follows Adan through his recovery, his "escape" from the people who have stolen his memories, and out into a wilderness that he is completely unprepared to face.
Will, the man who orchestrates his escape, has an agenda that he needs Adan's help with in order to complete, . .

One of the things that struck me as being very neat about this book is that Adan is very like a child who has just been born.
Everything is new to him, He is an adult, and has the motor skills and ability to communicate of an adult, but in everything else he is like a child, He has no context for anything, no experience, no memories, As you follow him on his adventure, this can at times be frustrating for the reader because the author has been very careful to describe everything Adan sees as if he is seeing it for the first time, with no context to draw from as he looks at things.
And yet, despite the fact that this can be frustrating it makes the world a little hard to imagine it is also incredibly brilliant, and really helps you understand Adan and the way he thinks and why he is the way he is.
His deepest yearning is to retrieve his memories, He has no idea who to trust and who not to trust, The person he bonds the most with is a young child, All of this makes sense if you can remember who Adan is and what has happened to him,

Overall, this was a very interesting read and I hope the author finishes the series so I can find out how the story ends! Goodreads First Reads advanced copy

For the most part Into The Vast was a story that I just could not get into.
Most of the dialogue felt off to me, The characters, especially the main two, seemed undeveloped, The story itself just seemed to jump around, I found myself not really caring how the story ended,

It wasn't until the lastor so pages that the story began to make sense and the dialogue felt more natural, Still, I can not rate this more than a/stars, I'm not sure who to recommend the story to, This book had its ups and downs part of me really liked it and wanted to rate if aout ofstars, and parts of it were really strange or mindless and I wanted to rate it aout ofstars.


To start off with the good, the author has an interesting concept of a future society, which is a little like a version of the Planet of the Apes, but instead of Apes we have people that are cast out with super humans trying to control the remains of society telepathically.
You have the typical ensuing struggle of good vs, evil and the ensuing battle,

For the less than good, the author tends to drone on and on in what appears to be an attempt to make the book longer which was quite frustrating.
There is also quite a bit of future technology that I had a hard time wrapping my arms around and wanted to shout out "b, s. " as it wasn't very believable or had not been explained very well,

The ending just leaves you hanging, and if there is a sequel I haven't decided yet if I am going to give it a try, “Into the Vast The Chronotrace Sequence” by DJ Edwardson is not my usual choice of book but I came across it on a review website and decided to step outside my comfort zone for once.
