I have tried to read this, over and over - I just can't. The base concept (Mars colonization because Earth is dying) might be neat, but it's pretty old; the dialog, description, and writing in general would be quite good...for a high school student. It's not ready for publication. And the reason for the sudden pressure is...just stupid. If it's that important, why pull in someone who's basically shown she's a good fighter (but not good at following orders, taking orders, or leading) to manage? It's great for the plot, not so good in terms of suspension of disbelief. I never got to the takeoff, so I have no idea what happens on the trip. I read the very end, which is...also highly unlikely. Either there's been some magic on Mars or they end up going someplace very different...and I'm not willing to subject myself to the writing to find out. Yuck.

Project Emergence is about a group of teenagers who are selected to leave earth as it is about to be destroyed and start a new civilization on Mars. There are many secrets and surprises about the teenagers on the ship and the reasons they were selected for this mission. There is also a stowaway on board determined to sabotage the ship. The teens must work together to survive long enough to make it to Mars. I thought Project Emergence was okay. The story was full of action and the characters were fairly likeable. I don't think they were particularly were particularly well developed and the writing was sometimes clunky. While I found the story and characters interesting, for some reason this book didn't grab me. For me it was just a fair read. I was provided with a copy of the book by the publisher in exchange for an honest review through the early reviewers program. Esta reseña ha sido escrita por los Primeros Reseñadores de LibraryThing. A group of twins who were born during a solar flare and exposed to excessive radiation are sent to help colonize another planet. Earth's destruction is imminent and these teens must leave their lives and families behind to help save the future of humanity. Little do they know, all the ships that went before them have been destroyed by terrorists against leaving Earth. They have no one to welcome their arrival, they must do it all with no help/experience/training. Such begins the unlikely events of Project Emergence.Project Emergence is a good book but it wasn't for me. I don't typically read YA and I was reminded of all the reason why I don't in it. The characters are pretty one dimensional, they blend together for me. The challenges faced are not very believable and everything is overly dramatic.

"Project Emergence" is a decent read for the young adult market. There are various character types that many young adult readers could relate to. There is an equal balance of male and female heroism which makes the book attractive to both boys and girls. The plot, although futuristic, is reasonable with enough fantasy to keep it interesting. The plot is simple and exciting enough to keep readers engaged. It's not the most in depth story I've ever read, but it would be great for reading on a beach or for fun. There is quite a lot of flirtatiousness and sexual undertones between characters. As an adult I could do without, however younger readers may enjoy this. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
An ancient Hopi myth says people arrived on tiny silver pods that fell from the sky. But the truth is far more terrifying. 258 teens are sent from a dying Earth to a terraformed Mars as part of the Emergence Program, mankind's last hope before solar flares finish off their planet and species. Among the brave pioneers are 16-year-old Joey Westen and her twin brother, Jesse. After only minutes in space, something triggers a total ship lockdown. With the help of their roommates, the Matsuda twins (notorious hackers and shady secret-keepers), Joey and Jesse stumble onto an extremist plot to sabotage the Emergence Program. But Joey and Jesse didn't travel to the deepest pits of space and leave their mother behind to be picked off in a high-tech tin can. They'll lie, hack, and even kill to survive the voyage and make it to Mars. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
