Luna Lovebooks says…

I was originally approached by Mr. Steigleder to review Terminal Core and he offered Rising Tide as well.

While I see hard core science fiction fans liking/loving this novel/series, I often found myself confused while I was reading.  The plot mixes dystopian, sci-fi and spiritual themes and tropes. There are allusions to Christianity’s stories, but they are not super clear; at least to me. The many creatures with unique names were also hard to keep straight. However, if you love worlds where good and evil are still found in large supplies and stories that have similarities to the Christian faith then this book is for you.

I  had to take a step back and look at this from a different perspective to give it a true rating since I had difficulties keeping things straight. After looking back over my notes and re-reading parts of the novel, I can safely say that I give this installment 3 stars.
