Reviewed by Sefina Hawke for Readers' Favorite

Tomorrow's Child by Anthony Mayor is an action, science fiction thriller combination with aliens, which will appeal most to a mixed audience of adults and young adults who enjoy alien first encounter books. This story is set during a first contact experience with aliens; however, the twist is that the aliens are, in fact, the children of humanity. Tomorrow's Child follows Daniel, who has been recalled to the Copernicus Space Station two years after he last left the station. Daniel and his team are tasked with the study of a new facet of human evolution.

Tomorrow's Child by Anthony Mayor is a completely new and unique take on an alien first encounter; the idea that the aliens are the children of humanity is something I have never read before. The suspense and the question of whether the children should be allowed to grow into their abilities, or if they will be snatched away and simply used for their abilities, kept me on the edge of my seat. The characters were all well developed with their own personalities and morals. The dialogues between the characters were all well written and realistic. I simply could not put Tomorrow's Child down so I ended up reading the whole book in one sitting. I really enjoyed this book and I hope that Anthony Mayor decides to continue writing more books in the same universe!
