Book Reviews of The Children of First Man
Book Review: Best Book EVER!
Summary: 5 Stars
My dad suggested this book to me right before I went to Europe for two weeks, and I was skeptical, but I started reading anyway. Well, I became so engrossed in the book that I just had to take it with me. I couldn't put it down! I ended up spending a significant amount of my vacation reading this book. Thom is an amazing storyteller, and his research is impeccable. His characters are diverse and fleshed-out, and it moves and evolves very organically. Though he goes into extreme detail sometimes, it definitely brings you closer to the character. You feel like you're in their skin. The Children of First Man has become the book by which I judge all others. Nothing else quite measures up. I think it's safe to say that this is my favorite book of all time.
