The Peace Warrior
review 1: I think this could have been an excellent book, but the story was way too brief. Putting an army together in 3 days? no way. Having humans so "peaceful" they won't stand up for themselves? again...no way. It is a basic human instinct to fight when they are backed into a corner or threatened in any way. Its pure, basic, back brain instinct. and 300 years (or even 3000 years) would not breed that out of humans. I think if the author had taken the time to flesh out a believable background (humans putting down weapons of mass destruction, going a peaceful route etc. would be believable) but not the extreme of throwing a rock putting you in prison for life. Not to the extreme of bowing down before a 100 aliens and letting them take over our world. Totally unbelievable. But if t... morehe author had stretched it out a bit, put in more details etc. it could have been a more believable story. I think the premise of this book is good, just not detailed enough. There was no real emotions evoked when they took on the aliens...it was just too darn easy for the passive humans to take them out and no real sense of relief, happiness etc was evoked at the end. Not sure I will read the next 2 in the series...just don't want to pay for a book that is too basic to be really entertaining.
review 2: I love sci-fi as a genre as it takes me to new and different places, different times, different worlds and the unexpected.Peace Warrior is a good sci-fi novel that's a quick read. I wanted to like Peace Warrior more as the plot was quit interesting. The basic premise is that a solider is brought to life after 600 years into a world where violence is shun upon. While I liked the novel, It felt rushed... less

Like Capt America. Or Demolition Man. But not. Not enough action to redeem such poor world-building.

Interesting premise, fairly well written, just not my cup of tea.
