It didn't blow me away but it did leave me thinking, and it did definitely made me hopeful. There was a lot here. I loved the scientific nature and the intensity of the situation, and given that this was originally self published, I'll forgive grammatical mistakes. It was quietly intense and absolutely fascinating.
