Reseña del libro "New Eden: The Joining Trilogy Book 1 (en Inglés)"
On New Eden, men live in terror of the female gaze. Two thousand years after the destruction of Earth, the last of humanity is headed towards extinction. Females (eves) are kept mute, segregated, and heavily veiled: prohibited from looking a male above the knee. Theresa and Ruth were born corrupt: a danger to mankind. Although their lives are meticulously orchestrated to snuff out all sense of resistance, Theresa quietly rebels against her painful, stifled life, and Ruth risks everything for a few stolen moments of joy. Will it lead them to liberation or Expulsion into a demon-filled wasteland? Robert is an illegit, raised from infancy by priests. When he stumbles onto an appalling secret, he must get as far from the Church as possible or risk discovery and Expulsion. Destined for the hated mines, Eric could win a better future ―if his rebellious attitude and profane beliefs don't destroy his chances and his life. William is a nervous, sensitive prince who suffers badly in this world where males are callously trained into hardened, pitiless brutes, and all weakness is punished. He's despised and tortured by his brothers, ignored by his father, and manipulated by the Church, who conspires to use the devout William as a puppet-king. As the story unfolds, the lives of these five heroes will intersect through circumstance, impacting each other dramatically and changing their lives forever. Gradually, through forbidden metaphysical powers, it's revealed how New Eden developed into this cruel, regressive world. Yet the fearful William can't resist the lure of these terrifying powers or the exhilaration of sacrilegious ideas that could hold the answer to Humanity's survival. Can William find the courage to break free of the Church's grip? A dystopian scifi with metaphysical elements and well-developed characters, mixed with intrigue, action, betrayal and conspiracy ─with a dash of romance. The first book in The Joining Trilogy series.
