This is honestly such a beautiful comment and I am 100% behind you on that. We all need peace and the only way to achieve that is to celebrate our differences.

It is. I feel that the best way to write is when you can get your reader to feel and think about ways to improve the real world.MICHAEL HASSAN wrote: ↑12 Jul 2018, 05:23 Thanks for the amazing review, i m always pleased for fiction books that discusses deep issues. wow it's nice

I'm also from SA and I remember the xenophobia attacks in Durban. I'm glad I never witnessed it but it was such an awful time and I remember how scared we all were. I love South Africa and I think you understand when I say that our country just has something wonderful about it. We are dealing with a lot but I hope and pray that we will succeed in loving one another because I love our damn country SA has such wonderful people and I see a great future ahead. And you teaching people to love one another makes a huge difference. If every person passes on one good deed imagine how great the world would be? So carry on because all that love you are sending out will make a difference. I have no doubt about it.

Thank you for such a beautiful comment! And I hope that day comes while I'm still alive.Miriam Molina wrote: ↑14 Jul 2018, 22:55 We should celebrate our differences and unite as a human race. I wish it were that easy. Maybe we need aliens to teach us how. I remember watching "Independence Day," and getting goosebumps seeing all the viewers in the theater standing up to applaud the last scene.

I don't know if it's because I live in South Africa and xenophobia attacks are so close to home, but this really touched my heart I hope you decide to read it and that you love it as much as I did.kandscreeley wrote: ↑17 Jul 2018, 08:31 Wow! A science fiction book that changes your life? That sounds like a must read to me! I love that it has the two story lines going at once. The isolated Malawi and first contact with the rest of the world. Sounds interesting. Thanks for the review.

I must say, the lost contact with the rest of the world really upped the suspense for me. Hope you enjoy it!misatifelix wrote: ↑17 Jul 2018, 09:28 This book outlines what happens on the ground due to xenophobia in a clear way. I cant wait to know what happens when to Doctor Elizabeth Bowell and her patients after loosing contact with the rest of the world due to the failing radio.
