Wars of the New Humanity: Collection One by Michael
J. Brooks features two books in one. Republic Falling: Advent of a New Dawn
is the first book in the series. In this first book, the class struggle becomes
the pivotal point of conflict in a utopian world where the government of the
Commonwealth lives luxuriously with the select few in Eden while those in
Satellite One experience misery. Randal Scott is a young soldier who, together
with his lover Stacie Spencer, rises against the man who destroyed his mother.
But nothing is what it seems as both the Commonwealth Defense Force and the
Coalition of Rebel Factions show signs of betrayal to a cause he has believed
in. Republic Under Siege: Threat from Within is the second book in this
collection. Satellite One is already free, but Commonwealth breeds internal
tensions. Akane Sugimori is a young immigrant from Satellite One who refuses to
accept the class system in Eden. Will she enlist the help of Randal Scott and
succeed in a war to alter the status quo?
This collection of two books is a gorgeous
offering for fantasy fans with dystopian solid settings and unforgettable
characters. The first thing that captivated me in Brooks' writing is the
wonderful care he gives to characterization. Randal is not just a disgruntled
soldier but one with a powerful motivation — he is out to get the man who
destroyed his mother and the relationship between him and the enemy is
wonderfully explored, one that is complex. The social commentaries offer a
vivid image of the class distinction in the new worlds that humanity inhabits.
While this is an imaginary tale with a beautifully imagined setting, it provides
strong and resonant themes, a reflection of some of the ills of contemporary
society where the majority must work hard to support the lifestyles of the few.
Michael J. Brooks writes in a captivating voice and prose that is hugely
descriptive, offering scenes that are focused and emotionally intense. I was
swept off my feet from the first book and continued straight into the second
installment in the series. The richly textured writing, the captivating
world-building, and the intrigue kept me moving from page to page. It will have
you invested from start to finish and left wanting more.
