Utopia. It’s difficult to imagine a life free from care. In this debut novel from T.J. Sachs, we get an intimate glimpse of perfection. And then quickly the veneer peels off to reveal sinister layer after layer. Crawford Lear is in a powerful position within the Beta Union habitat. After tragedy strikes, a bubbling rebellion rises to the surface. Loyalties are tested and lives are at stake. Beta Union may not be as blissful as its citizens think.
Betera’s Factor is a refreshingly unique story that takes advantage of man’s innate desire for contentment. The characters are dynamic and the fictional world is vibrant and well envisioned. A world void of harmful emotions sounds ideal, but probing deeper betrays flaws in this ideology. Unfortunately, the text is filled with grammatical errors not easily overlooked by even a casual reader. They begin on the second page and are littered throughout. With a good editing job, this fantastic idea will surely transform into a solid 5 star book!
T.J. Sachs gives readers much to look forward to with her inspired ideas. Betera’s Factor is a chilling look into the depths in which men will plunge in the pursuit of control.
