Alien Earth Review

Alien Earth by Megan Lindholm

Overall Grade C

This book takes place in a dystopian future long after the earth had been abandoned due to humans killing the planet. Humans are assisted in leaving the planet by the Arthropiana who travel in Beastships which are capable of interstellar travel.

The story is centered on a human crew of the Beastships who are traveling back to earth and the interaction with the Arthropiana co-captain.

Unfortunately the story seemed fairly predictable from plot to the characters, though the character development was paced ok. The one thing I liked, even though I knew how it was going to end by about halfway through, was the ending I felt it really delivered though getting there took a very predictable path.
