Customer Reviews

Very compelling

Compelling, its a very over-used word when reviewing books. SIRAT is a very engrossing, there's another one, tale set in the far future when humanity is out among the stars searching for a new home. The world they are forced to land on is nearly uninhabitable and not welcoming in the least, survival will be an arduous challenge. I hardily recommend this book to science fiction lovers!

Sirat

While out searching for a new habitable planet, the space craft, the Archer saw a planet that had a few similarities to Earth. The only problem was from their view, they saw a planet covered in ice, as well as erupting volcano's. The planet, now named Sirat is going to be the crew's new home due to the meteor shower that is supposed to last around 1 to 2 years rendering them helpless to leave the planet. The crew can not survive on the resources of the ship for that long, so they are forced to find a place to land and do their best to survive. Disease, unknown viruses, bacteria, plagues, and food shortage are all major downsides to being forced to land on this planet. Even the issue of child-support is mentioned as well as more population needed. The Clans can marry more than one person at a time, but there are strict rules at times when it comes to joining a clan as Jensen will discover. And then there is the issue with nanites, they can be helpful at times but deadly in others. There are also mentions of DNA reconstruction with these nanites in order to help growing fetus'. Sirat: Through The Fires Of Hell by Tamara Wilhite is a futuristic science fiction novel that is very well thought out, and well written. I admit at times I got confused because a name was used more than once for a different person(named after family members), but besides that it was a quick read. It is a very real possibility that if all of Earth's resources run out, we may need to seek another planet sometime in many many lifetimes away. If you're into science fiction, pick up a copy of Sirat, you will enjoy it. 4 Hearts
