Eternals Classic Origins,

 

If you're a fan of science fiction inspired by the world of comic books, chances are you've encountered DC's The New Gods or Marvel's The Eternals, both crafted by the creative mind of Jack Kirby. Kirby's vision wasn't centered on Spiritual Beings; rather, it revolved around advanced civilizations. Personally, I am well-acquainted with both The New Gods and The Eternals. My most recent delve into this realm was through "Eternals Classic Origins," initially released in 1988—a comic book miniseries narrating the origin tale of The Eternals. The series is a collaborative creation of Jack Kirby, who served as the writer, and Joe Quesada, who contributed as the illustrator.

The Celestials' fascination with genetic engineering likely stems from their aspiration to fashion a race of beings that embodies perfection. Genetic engineering, in their view, is the pivotal tool to realize this ambition. The Celestials firmly believe that through the manipulation of genes from various species, they can bring forth beings surpassing any in strength, intelligence, and power that have ever existed.

The Siege of Eternity by Frederik Pohl My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book continues the Eschaton series, yeah you going to see that in the header. There really isn't much to say in this second book. All we know that two civilization is at war and the earth is just one of many civilizations where it has been targeted for assimilation to the "Beloved Leaders" empire. the interesting part is thru out the series is the Eschaton.

Frederick Pohl apparently believed in the Big Crunch theory and expressed his concept in this series the advanced species have given religion to the subjected races or species the other side's beliefs are not so credible. Their religion is very similar to Human beliefs of an afterlife which are present in the majority of cultures on our planet. In the end, the winning species and their allies or subject...

📝 Review Summary: Children of Memory

Children of Memory by Adrian Tchaikovsky My rating: 4 of 5 stars Children of Memory (Children of Time Series #3) is an essential, challenging, and mind-bending addition that shifts the series' focus from galactic evolution to a profound crisis of identity and reality. Note: This cannot be read as a standalone novel and contains major spoilers. Core Plot & Major Twist The novel revolves around a struggling human colony on the world of Imir. The central puzzle is the repeated ship crashes. The Engine: The crashes are revealed to be "intentional" because an ancient, alien Simulation Engine beneath Imir copies the consciousness of approaching life and inserts the duplicates into a simulated, rapidly aging environment. The Reveal: The original human colonists and the Skipper crew's landing party (including the Interlocutor, Miranda) were all physically destroyed. The "people" living on Imir—including the simulated Miranda and the copies of Portiid (Fabian)...
