Celsius 66

by Samuel DenHartog

In the year 2167, Earth has become a relentless furnace. The once vibrant planet is now a desolate landscape, scorched under the unforgiving sun with a median temperature of Fahrenheit 151. Humanity, ravaged by wars, environmental collapse, and pandemics, clings to survival in this harsh new world. "Fahrenheit 151" is not just a story; it's a harrowing journey through the remnants of a civilization that burned too bright and too fast, leaving behind only ashes and memories.This gripping tale follows a group of survivors as they navigate the treacherous ruins of their planet. Each day is a desperate struggle for water, food, and shelter, a constant battle against both the elements and other survivors. As resources dwindle and tensions rise, the group is pushed to its limits, facing moral dilemmas and the ever-present threat of betrayal and violence. In a world where the rules of civilization have long been forgotten, trust is a luxury they can ill afford, and every decision could be their last."Fahrenheit 151" is a stark reminder of the fragility of our world and the consequences of human folly. It's a story of resilience and despair, of fleeting alliances and shattered bonds. This novel doesn't promise a tale of redemption or hope but offers a powerful reflection on what it means to be human in the face of overwhelming odds. It's a poignant exploration of survival, no matter the cost, in a world where the flame of humanity flickers in the shadow of its own making.

If you follow this "author" on Facebook but don't realize everything he emits is A.I.-generated, despite how painfully obvious it all is ...

If you buy multiple of his books or download them during their frequent free promotions of this A.I.-generated schlock ...

If you unironically read it and think it's actually good ...

... you might be a Boomer.

I realized about 3 chapters in after noticing that the words "stark" and "palpable" showed up on every page that this entire work is just AI generated slop. I finished the book, regretably, because I have hard time not finishing something I start, but man, this would have been a good one to just give up on.

Interesting concept, weak execution

This story, which could have been quite good, suffers from a total lack of character development. I forced myself to keep going until the end. Sadly, this was 2 hours of my life that I will never get back. Recommend a hard pass.

Excellent concept, poorly written. Will someone tell the author "Show,don't tell "

[Sarah Grant · Rating 2 out of 5]

If I see the word "dwindle" or any of its conjugations ever again, it will be too soon.

Story was very vague, lots of repetitive phrases, and quite simply, uninteresting. I am so glad to be done with this.

The idea is great, but this was a chore to read.

Let's get to the obvious first: AI bad. This isn't even trying to hide it. Bummer.

Now, the concept was actually good. I really would've liked it if it wasn't AI.. Also, I don't like the way the title is so close to Fahrenheit 451, which is an actually good book.

story was weak overall, alot of repeated sayings and no real character development that I cared for.

This was a very interesting book.

The awesome Samuel DenHartog offered this book for free toady so I got it and read it.

I feel this book needs to be read by everyone on this planet - especially since Our World is ever so rapidly going off in the direction of what this book discusses. Hopefully it is still not too late for our planet.

Fahrenheit 151 refers to the temperature that the Earth has risen to - in a not too far off future. The polar ice caps have long melted and coastal cities and countries have disappeared. War has claimed almost all of the lives of the people of the Earth. What's left are small - fragmented communities of humanity - struggling to survive in a Very Harsh environment.

The book ends in hope, albeit a fragile hope.

Good read but I wanted more

This book is a scary insight into what the future likely holds. Exploring the difficulties of surviving in a desolate world and the importance of keeping humanity alive through hardships. BUT I wish the book was longer and more detailed through big scenes, it left me wanting more.

[Tannia Castiblanco · Rating 3 out of 5]

Una perspectiva centrada de la humanidad y su forma de reaccionar ante el caso y la incertidumbre, la lectura ofrece diversas aristas de la vida en comunidad y la construcción de un sentido común que nos ayuda a sopesar los desafíos de un mundo en colapso constante, me queda corta la historia en cuanto al futuro próximo y la posibilidad de nuevos inicios pero es ligera y entretenida

Es cómo leer el resumen de un libro…. Esta muy bien escrito y entretiene bastante (se puede leer en un día) pero es básicamente un cuento largo, cuenta y cuenta y cuenta y no muestra nada; pero la historia vale la pena, me gusto mucho y leería el libro que se resume 😂
