RED HEADED BOOK LOVER review of Planetary Wars: Rise of an Empire

Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire, Mary Ann Bernal


Anastasia Dennison finds out too late that her husband is the feared dictator responsible for the planetary wars plaguing the galaxy. Entrenched in Terrenean society, and enjoying the spoils of war, she turns a blind eye to the atrocities committed against helpless civilians. A crisis of conscience shatters her resolve to deny the truth, but which path to follow?
Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire is a novel I was desperate to read ever since discovering it and caught my attention right away thanks to its description which alludes to a ruthless dictator and his lover who is struggling with what to do.  Now and then a reader will come across that one book that blows them away, it is a somewhat generic term, but that is what Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire did to me… it blew me away and ever since completing it I have been thinking of its intricate and detailed story and how I need to re-read it! That is when you know book lovers that you have come across an incredible book when you are thinking of it when you have a million things to do. That is why I am already going to recommend Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire to you lovely readers, and yes, it may be early on in my review, but Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire is a novel not to be missed!
Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire for me was thrilling, captivating and addictive right from the start and I felt this from beginning to end. Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire was captivating to me from the start thanks to the unique premise of the story and the bewitching literature courtesy of the author, Mary Ann Bernal who from the start hooked me with her unique story that was unlike anything I have read before.
Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire is a remarkable novel that will introduce the reader to the protagonist of the book, Anastasia Dennison. Anastasia has fallen madly in love with Jayden Henry Shaw, so much so that she married him; however, she has recently discovered a shocking secret – that he is a ruthless dictator who ‘rules the galaxy with an iron fist.’ Anastasia’s husband has caused an immense amount of pain and suffering within the galaxy, and he has no plans on slowing down, and Anastasia is unsure what to do. Will she continue to back her husband’s desire for complete domination or will she stop this evil before it is too late? Read the breathtaking Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire to find out!
The premise of Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire is exceptional, original and unlike anything I have read before. I loved the many themes and elements explored throughout the book, and all themes are explored by Mary Ann Bernal wonderfully, and she does this by lacing these interesting themes throughout the text flawlessly and weaving them with the story. The result of this makes Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire a highly addictive and fascinating read that is never once lackluster or predictable. Mary Ann Bernal really has accomplished the near impossible, Mary Ann Bernal has managed to write an entertaining, bewitching and flawless story that will perfectly unfold in readers minds like a movie and now that I think about it, why is this book not a movie already!
Mary Ann Bernal is a phenomenal writer who knows how to grasp her reader’s attention from the first page. Mary Ann Bernal instead of writing long, drawn-out builds up which are commonly found in science fiction novels, decides to ditch this approach and thrust her reader into the heart of the story straight away so that the reader is instantly captivated and immersed. I personally love this approach, what is the point of having a long build-up with little excitement? This is only necessary if the author in question can’t develop the characters in the story quickly, but with Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire, the reader will not encounter this issue because Mary Ann Bernal instantly develops her characters and makes the reader invest in not only them but also their journey.
Overall Planetary Wars Rise of an Empire is a thrilling, compelling and thought-provoking novel that will easily entertain readers for many days and nights and so I, of course, have to award this stellar gem of a book five stars!
