Book 1 of 3: The Last Humans

See all formats and editions

A new dystopian/post-apocalyptic series from a New York Times bestselling author My name is Theo, and I'm a resident of Oasis, the last habitable area on Earth. It's meant to be a paradise, a place where we are all content. Vulgarity, violence, insanity, and other ills are but a distant memory, and even death no longer plagues us. I was once content too, but now I'm different. Now I hear a voice in my head, and she tells me things no imaginary friend should know. Her name is Phoe, and she is my delusion. Or is she? Note: This book contains some strong language. We felt it was important for the censorship theme of the novel. If such words offend you, you might not enjoy this book.

Very Interesting and Romantic

Reviewed in the United States on April 12, 2024

Verified Purchase

I was intrigued from the start. It felt like a tale of a future society or even an alien society. Then it's dangerous with hints not only of why it's getting serious but also hints about the ghost in the main character's mind. A roma
nce is developing? Then that is squashed but is that a red herring? Very good. This story is very enjoyable, just the right amount of teasing, danger, violence and kindness.

Mind dimensions. Plot twists. Intense. It took a long while to get into this because it is chaotic Divergent/Hunger Games feel but involving technology. The contradiction on utilizing technology versus fear of using technology is the main point of having segregated factions. It was a strange read. I love these authors so I persevered even though I wasn't impressed with this story. I did like the several plot twists. That made the book worth reading. I'm curious to see how the rest of the series continues but that interest is low to continue at this time. I am not in the frame of mind for this particular sci-fi adventure even if it does have a great storyline.

The vanilla review: 3 stars and the reasons for them

Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

Three star reviews. The "vanilla" kind. Almost no one (myself included) pay attention to this kind. However, I'd be doing a disservice to the book ans the potential readers if I picked anything different. Why? Please read on...

The book is probably a four star if you are looking for an action/adventure computer game meeting a sci-fi story. If you like young, predictable and sometimes comically contrarian lead characters, you may find yourself drawn in.

If you are looking for deep characters and a thick plot this is not the place. That's the playground of sci-fi masters such as Asimov, Clarke, Heinlein, Simmons etc.

Cons:
- Weak character development
- Cheesy antagonist
- Predictable lines and humor
- Too many weak references to the "old world" to explain concepts/actions. Feels like an easy way out. Many times.

Pros:
- Good ending and revelation
- Good fundamental background of a post apocalyptic society
- Does not go on forever; readable a few hundred pages

As a quick, easy read this book is a four star (similar to a good B-rated movie). As a good sci-fi story it is only two. Hence the unavoidable three (vanilla) star review.

Cheers!

Fun transportation to a new imagination

Reviewed in the United States on November 3, 2016

Verified Purchase

It was a wonderful quick read that left me wanting the next book! I have to admit that it had been a long time since I exercised my willing suspension of disbelief on any book that wasn't a reread I trusted. My usal go to books written by Orson Scott Card, Charles D'lint, or Isaac Asimov. Let's face it, I can be a hard sell sometimes. When I began the book I first thought uh oh this is going to be kiddy and underdeveloped (not that I'm any great literary critic), but as I continued to read I found myself absorbed into some really wonderful twists and turns in which the writer was able to transport me into the characters position and leave me there concerned and surprised. Concerned for the characters and surprised at my realization of how the book transported me into a new space which I could be surprised. All in all I thoroughly enjoyed it, am looking forward to the next and thank the author Dima Zales for the entertaining story. Thanks

I love a good dystopian read and this one did not disappoint! Great characters, twists I didn’t see coming and a reveal I saw, but still wasn’t disappointed by. Creative for the most part and very well written. Will definitely continue he series when I can.

This is the first book I've read by this author, but it will be one of many. Mr. Zales is a simply stunning story spinner. It was truly difficult for me to tear myself away from this book - I have lost sleep due to it! But it was worth every bleary-eyed work day I had to face. If you enjoy engaging writing, characters that breath from within the pages, and a story that will keep you guessing, then do yourself a favor and dive into this book. You'll be glad you did! (just don't start it too close to bedtime!)

Very interesting read

Reviewed in the United States on September 26, 2016

Verified Purchase

This book had a lot of reviews that said that it starts out slow and people got bored. If you are looking for a book that has a 2 demential world and very few words to make the story come alive then this book is not for you. The author takes the time to build the story and make it real whole you are reading it. It is very sifi but in a way that is refreshing.

The reason that I gave it 4 stars is because even though I felt the story was good I felt like even though she was aiming for adults with the wording the way she told it made me feel like she was having troubles figuring out her target audience. Is it a tween book or a adult one? Perhaps she will be more clear in the next book.

I very much recommend this book to someone that can appreciate a good book and does not get impatient. Reading all the words is worth it.

I enjoyed this book. I found it to be very enlightening and a wonderful take on how we as a human race could go if the world was threatened. Whether the threat was internal or external and how the beliefs of few could be imposed on the future. I loved it! Kept me guessing till the end.

I liked the twist at the end though perhaps it could have been hidden a bit more. I also liked the inclusion of RPG within a story that was not about RPG.

This was a good story, it was a slower pace than I am used to. I also found that it made me curious to find out what happened, but now it has ended I don't feel the need to read the next one.
