Genre: Fantasy
Title: Gaea
Author: Robina Williams
"Mankind isn´t so bad. Trouble is they´ve evolved too fast ─ too much too soon. They´ve lost their sense of proportion, lost their perspective." The Seraph explained to Gaea.
Man seems to have taken more than they need; damaging the earth and leaving a path of destruction in their wake. It seems as though Gaea´s planet is beyond repair. Angered, she seeks the guidance of the great creator; the Christian God who agrees with Gaea that Man needs to be taught a much-needed lesson. Gaea, goddess of the Earth asks her powerful relatives to aid her in her struggle. Storms rage, the oceans unleash their fury; the world seems to be fighting back, but will Man learn their lesson in time?
Robina Williams is an author who seems to find a way to entrance her readers in a spellbinding story while simultaneously sending an important message to the masses. With a beautiful writers´ voice, she tells the story of a suffering earth; one that needs to be saved. Williams wrote this book in such a way that it forces the reader to keep turning the pages of the book until the very end, without ceasing. Robina is stylistically unique and is a superb author who will appeal to young and old alike. She herself believes in the possibility that Egyptian and Greek gods live in unison with the Christian God, a possibility that becomes a reality in the pages of her book. Gaea is the third book in Robina Williams´ Quantum Cat series.
I thoroughly enjoyed Gaea; page for page it was laced with wonderful pieces of Greek mythology and modern day environmental issues. With beautiful wordplay and a wonderful story, Gaea is an enriching addition to bookshelves anywhere. Utilizing Gaea; Mother of the Earth as a main character, provided the book with an interesting perspective with regards to the environmental crisis that we on Earth are now facing. I hope to be reading more from Robina Williams very soon.
Gaea is highly recommended by Kirsten Bussière, Allbooksreviews.
