Greatly detailed set in a not so distant future with dystopian-esque elements. (I know that’s not really a word). I’d love to be a fly on the wall of this authors mind. His attention to detail is very Impressive and I can see why this was so highly thought of by die hard fans of the genre. I only marked it down by a star because it’s not normally the sort of book I spend this much time on and I know that’s on me for agreeing to read a lengthy SCIFI other than that this would be an epic read for for huge fans of the genre.
Thanks to net galley for an advanced copy of this book for an honest review #netgalley #diamondsofeden #scifi

Thank you for the opportunity to preview The Diamonds of Eden.
This is part 2 of a series and if you haven’t read part 1 you are slightly disadvantaged
Set in the future this is a mystery with global impact.
Not my cup of tea but we’ll written 3 stars

This story started in an interesting manner , set 50 years in the future… however once getting into the next few chapters, I found it detailed in a way that I found hard to read through so I gave up.

“The Diamonds of Eden” depicts a highly believable near futuristic world with rich characters, multiple plot twists and cool technology. It is the year 2072 and the world has largely adopted a global, socialistic standard of living called the Basic Human Standard. “Diamonds” is the sequel to “The Grey Zone”, and thankfully the three main characters are back. Natalie Kelley is an investigative reporter who covers domestic terrorism for the Chicago Tribune. Juan Carlos Luna is a security expert who heads the North American Security Office, and Noah Bridger is the erstwhile terrorist serving time in the most secure prison in this new world. Following their compelling, and sometimes intertwining, stories is what makes “Diamonds” one of those books that are very hard to put down.
