ReCOgnition: Oxygen Debt Part 1 by Mark Dowson
4.0
"Reco2gnition: Oxygen Debt" by Mark Dowson is a really well-crafted science fiction thriller. It is a pretty impressive debut book. I wasn't expecting it to be interesting, engaging as well as informative all at once! As the central idea of the book is "environment", one cannot really expect the piece to be devoid of dull narration. But it is!
☠️Pieces of information are added without making it dry or boring. The want to read increases with each chapter.
☠️There are lively characters. The pace of the book isn't too fast nor is it too slow. It's just the perfect pace.
☠️The book reminds one of Dan Brown. It touches art and history just like Brown's works! And I happen to be a fan of Dan Brown thrillers so, there's no wayy I couldn't have liked this book. It is intriguing, engaging, well researched and amazingly good for a debut scifi.
☠️It really makes you wanna keep reading and keep knowing the characters. All the characters are pretty mysterious. They all have something much more to them that is not yet shown to us. I'm really looking forward to knowing more about Garzia and Merisi. They're both quite fascinating.

✨ Story: The future of Earth is bleak...It's 2112, there's advanced technology, machines, androids but the humans suffer as they've exhausted the Earth's resources. The only way to survive is to go back in time and prevent the murder of a scientist who could've probably saved the world by his newest theory if he weren't executed.

☠️The book really gives one something to think about. Our resources are dwindling day by day. We are destroying our environment. We do not have enough energy resources. And we don't seem to give a damn either. We really need to care for our planet.
☠️I DID NOT know it had a second book! I mean...the name says "part 1"...I'm dumb. I just cannot wait for the next book! I meaaaannn it ended on a cliffhanger
