MY REVIEW
P R Garcia writes some fabulous tales, so I am always eager to get my hands on another one of her books. Extinction 2038 was exactly what I expected and I enjoyed every minute of it.
A find that would change paleontology forever…and also…the world. I do wonder if something like this is possible, considering global warming is melting the glaciers and who knows what is hidden under all that ice.
As I read of the characters who were putting their life on the line, it made me thing of the Covid essential workers. When you read it, I think you may feel the same way.
Twinkles…I love Twinkles. Just like a child, annoying yet so lovable. Even in bad times, a human needs a laugh.
P R Garcia’s books stick with me long after reading. She adds those moments of ecological enlightenment…if we weren’t so into ourselves, maybe we would think of the world we live in and remember Mother Nature has her limits.
As the Antarctic ice thaws, what secrets hidden in its frozen tundra will be exposed? Definitely something to think about. Most of P R Garcia’s work that I have read, like Extinction 2038, hints at the destruction of climate change and I like that. Adds a realistic element.
Extinction 2038 is 242 pages of action and adventure. There were some surprises that I loved and I enjoyed my time spent reading Extinction 2038. My only complaint, I didn’t get lost in it. I would have loved for it to be longer, more intense. I didn’t feel the sense of urgency I wanted.
Never fear, I know we have another book coming from P R Garcia and I will not hesitate to pick it up and read it. I highly recommend her work and, even though, Extinction 2038 is not one of my favorites, I enjoyed my time spent in the Antarctic.
I voluntarily reviewed a free copy of Extinction 2038 by P R Garcia.
GOODREADS BLURB
Imagine a world with no electricity, no internet, no communications, no transportation. This is what three scientists face when they are trapped in Antarctica, their rescuers killed by an ancient virus their colleague unleashed. Despite the best attempts, the virus has spread across the globe, killing animal life indiscriminately. Within weeks, more than half of humanity is gone. The streets are littered with the rotting corpses of animals and people. Not even rats or flies are left to help clean up the mess.
If they can make it to the Australian Research Station, they might survive the forthcoming winter. If not, they will freeze to death within days. But even if they can reach the Station, it can only keep them alive until spring. Somehow they have to find a way off Antarctica, but how? And a more compelling question – why hasn’t the virus affected them? Why are they still alive?
ABOUT P R GARCIA
P.R. Garcia grew up in rural Michigan and is the youngest of three.
She became a lover of Science Fiction at an early age when her parents
took her to the movies. She was hooked the moment she heard Patricia
Neal tell the robot Gort in The Day the Earth Stood Still “Klaatu
barada nikto”. Inspired by what was possible, she and her dog spent
many days in the fields behind her home fighting aliens and
investigating unexplored planets. Her love continued to grow, and while
in high school, the series Star Trek hit television, boosting her
fascination with what might be out there. Her friends still comment on
how she skipped the football games to stay home and watch each episode.
When in her thirties, she became an award-winning basket weaver and
continued in this craft for three decades. Upon retiring from her job
of thirty years, she moved to San Diego, California. She volunteered
for five years as a guide on the Whale Watching Boats, teaching people
from around the world about the Pacific Ocean’s aquatic life.
At
sixty-two, Ms. Garcia began to write her Europa Saga, a tantalizing,
ten-part sci-fi series of intrigue, suspense, and mystery. Her saga is a
fresh retelling of the story of Atlantis and its inhabitants. The
books span six thousand years and four generations. Her story launched
her into the world of a best-selling author.
Global warming,
deforestation, pollution of our air and water, species loss, and the
devastation of Earth itself are all subjects dear to Ms. Garcia’s
heart. She has incorporated those themes into her later books,
including books seven through nine of the Europa Saga and Extinction
2038. Her upcoming book Guardians of Earth and the sequel Guardians of
Earth II, which should be released in early 2021, also deals with these
subjects. If you’d like information on ways you can help stop global
warming and other green topics, sign up for her newsletter.
Ms.
Garcia also writes children’s books. A Cat for William is based on an
authentic story about how a stray cat helps a man cope with a disabling
disease. She is working on two more children’s books: The Story of
Sudan: The Last Northern White Male Rhino and The Christmas Crayons, a
story about a homeless boy who finds happiness in a box of crayons on
Christmas Day. For more information, go to her web page: http://www.prgarcia1.com.
