I’m going to start this review by giving Future Prometheus by J.M. Erickson the highest praise I think anyone can give a book. I could not put it down. There are a lot of characters in the Future Prometheus series and I found myself caring about them, worrying about their lives, and cheering for a good outcome for all of them. I found Lieutenant Jose Melendez to be the perfect father figure, with all the faults and strengths that a good father will have. I found myself filled with hope and delight that June, Emma, and all the other “Artificial Persons” might reach true sapience. I even held out hope that Aurora and the other “evil” Artificial People who followed her would one day find the value of emotions, morals, and positive personal interactions. In other words, I had to see how the story would end. I had to see what comes next. When a writer can evoke that feeling in a reader he has done his job, and he has done it well.
Nothing was overdone or underdone in Future Prometheus. J.M. Erickson got it just right. There are classical quotes and references for the intellectuals. There is plenty of human psychology for those who think about how and why we tick. There is romance, conflict, drama and plenty of action. All in all, it was just a great book with great characters and I’m probably not the only reader who wants to see more of this world and these people.
