REVIEW: Dropnauts

by
Dropnauts - J. Scott Coatsworth

Just got a five-star review for Dropnauts on Amazon: Dropnauts is both a dystopian and a utopian novel, and a novel about what it means to be human, and how, when things are at their worst, sometimes we are our best. We can redeem ourselves, repair out mistakes. As author Lee Hunt says, the novel is “Fast, optimistic and entertaining.
