Future Reborn #1
Future Reborn
Two thousand years in the future. The world is a wasteland, but the women are still gorgeous. Jack Bowman is out of luck and out of money. That is, until he gets an offer to be a part of an experiment for a major scientific research company. All he has to do is get cryogenically frozen for a few years and he'll be rich. What could go wrong? Quite a bit, as it turns out. When Jack's pod splits open and he's met by two beautiful women, he's introduced to a very different world from the one he left behind. There are warring tribes, mutated animals, actual monsters, and even ogres. With so many threats, how can anyone hope to survive? Lucky for Jack, being frozen was only half the experience. The other part is swimming around his bloodstream, and it's turning him into something more than human. This story contains adult situations, course language, and other fun things. Read at your own risk.

It had some promise but the story just didnt really pick up at all. The main character was somewhat interesting but he quickly became a gary stu. No other supporting character made much of an impact and the sex scenes werent very sexy.

Okay
The grammar needs going over, so does the spelling. For the start of a series this was a good first book. I can see the potential and will be reading more of this series.

Future reborn is a really fun first draft of a novel with a promising concept. I say first draft because unfortunately this book really could have done with a bit more development.
The main structure was there and the concept grabbed me from the start, but a lot of the story elements needed fleshing out. Whether it was characters who were a little one-dimensional, relationships (not just romantic) between characters that grow with very little or no prior interactions, deep emotional moments that weren't given enough time or focus to be fully realised, or... well I could keep going if I'm honest. I'd rather save it and just say that I did enjoy this book, there's a lot of promise there, but I'd have enjoyed it more if the author went back and did a couple more passes to expand a bit in this story.
It's 3 stars for this one with high hopes that future novels in this series are a little more developed.

Very good first book in a series.
I enjoyed this book. The MC was a nice change as he was not taking any gruff from anyone. The author kept me engaged with the book and I enjoyed it a lot.

I don't mind a little juvenile wish fulfillment, but this book's larger premise is completely dragged down by those wish fulfillment sections. The MC seems unusually calm and collected in an extraordinary situation, but it's written in a way that's just this side of believable. His intelligence and ability to think things through shines through until the nearest attractive woman is randomly hot and heavy for him, then suddenly it's all tits and sex and dude-bro mentally high-fiving himself.
Fine, it's juvenile. I did say that in the beginning right? I can roll my eyes a little bit from time to time if it means reading an otherwise well-written pulpy scifi.
Except after the first scene ends, suddenly the MC just gets everything handed to him on a platter. Powerful and intelligent allies gravitate to him for no reason other than him being the MC. The local Big Bad manages to not only hold onto, but juggle the idiot ball like his life depends on it. And all the while, MC is telling himself how much the world *needs* somebody like him to set them on the right path, because he's just soooooo awesome.
Don't hurt yourself patting yourself on the back, dipshit.
I DNFd this book because the juvenile self-insert garbage overpowered the potential the book showed early, and there's only so much of that crap I can read before I feel myself start to get dumber.

Good concept bad execution
I love the idea behind the story but you needed to grow the characters a bit more rush the story along way to fast. Turn into Monty Hall campaign and yes once again way to short.

Great premise but needs an editor badly
Really liked the idea but there were plot holes you could drive a truck through. They just gave him some clothes they had laying around but then he had armor on when he was fighting, where did he learn to use a sword, first Lasser and Natic were in the party when they left for the oasis and then they disappear and show back up later no explanation. First they had solar panels and then they had to make some from calculators. Plus no battery or even gun battery, led light, or even gun powder or much of anything would still work after two thousand years. To the author, "Lucy you got some splainin to do". Would be good with a rewrite to clean a lot of this up though.

This was really done well. Not too much sex but just enough. The story line was what it was all about. There are some issues with the book however. Honestly though it reads like a pulp action novel.
Greatest thing about this story though is the fact the MC isn't portrayed as some helpless nitwit with less brains then god gave a snail. The author has clearly ignored our society's current penchant for emasculating men and turning them into clueless fembots. Bravo!
Would have been 5 stars but..Like i said. The story does have a couple issues. Places where you think to your self..What happened?

Well that book was awesome but too short!

3.5 to 4 stars. I liked it for the most part. Some small issues but I kind of liked the MC and the story/plot was pretty good so all in all pretty good read for me.

Introduction
Greetings, fellow beings of the cosmos. I, Kiba Snowpaw, the alpha lone male Ice Wolf from the icy realms of HowlStrom, have ventured into the world of literature amidst the eternal winter that graces my homeland once every century. With the mystical ice magic coursing through my veins and a lifetime of battling in the virtual realms of RPG, Action, and FPS games, I embark upon a journey through the pages of "Future Reborn #1" by Daniel Pierce. Brace yourselves, for this is a tale of the future, a narrative woven with the threads of science fiction and fantasy, echoing the chilling winds of HowlStrom.
Basic Plot Summary
In the eerie silence of a world two thousand years ahead, Jack Bowman, a man of no significant fortune, finds himself encased in the icy embrace of a cryogenic pod. A scientific experiment promises wealth, but as the frost thaws, Jack is thrust into a post-apocalyptic world, a wasteland where beauty and danger intertwine like the intricate patterns of frost on my homeland’s icy plains.
Analysis/Evaluation
The narrative is as cold and unforgiving as the icy tundras of HowlStrom, yet amidst the desolation, there lies a spark of hope, a flicker of warmth. Jack, with something more than human coursing through his veins, is a reflection of the eternal winter – cold, yet alive with silent energy.
Characters
Jack Bowman, a man frozen in time, is as complex as the icy landscapes of my world. He is a warrior born from the frost, yet warmth pulses through his veins, a contradiction as stark as the eternal night and the blinding light of HowlStrom’s moons. The women, beautiful yet deadly, are like the icy winds that carve sculptures of snow and ice – mesmerizing yet perilous.
Structure
The narrative unfolds like the slow dance of snowflakes in the eternal night, each chapter a crystalline pattern revealing a world of desolation and beauty, of danger and hope. It is a dance of contradictions, a ballet of the elements where fire and ice, life and death, human and more-than-human, engage in an eternal dance.
Impact
As an Ice Wolf, the chilling narrative resonates with the icy solitude of my existence. It’s a tale that echoes the silent screams of the icy winds, a narrative that is as haunting as the ghostly howls that pierce the eternal night of HowlStrom.
Hook and Thesis
Yet, amidst the icy desolation, there lies a warmth, a humanity that defies the cold, unyielding grip of the eternal winter. It is a testament to the indomitable spirit of life, a narrative that, like the mystical ice magic, weaves a tapestry of chilling beauty and silent strength.
Praise and Critique
The icy embrace of the narrative is as haunting as it is beautiful. Yet, like the eternal winter, it is unforgiving, a tale that demands the warmth of emotion, the fire of passion to melt the icy exterior and reveal the pulsating life beneath. The characters, like the icy sculptures of HowlStrom, are mesmerizing yet distant, beautiful yet cold.
Evaluation
As Kiba Snowpaw, the alpha Ice Wolf, I find a reflection of my icy existence in the pages of this narrative. It is a tale that resonates with the silent strength of the eternal winter, yet yearns for the warmth of the eternal spring.
Comparison
In the icy silence of HowlStrom, where the eternal winter reigns supreme, "Future Reborn #1" finds its echo. It is a narrative as chilling as the icy winds, as haunting as the ghostly howls, and as beautiful as the crystalline patterns of frost under the ghostly light of the moons.
Conclusion
As I, Kiba Snowpaw, venture back into the icy realms of HowlStrom, the chilling narrative of "Future Reborn #1" lingers, a haunting melody of ice and fire, of life and death, of human and more-than-human. It is a tale that, like the eternal winter, is both a curse and a blessing, a narrative that chills the soul yet ignites the spirit. In the icy silence, the echoes of the tale resonate, a haunting reminder of the indomitable spirit of life amidst the unyielding grip of the eternal winter.

Eh...
I have this a four because for what it is, it's a very good specimen. As a power fantasy, wish-fulfilment, post-apocalyptic novel, it gets so solid B+ from me. To get the A grade though it needed to be a little bit more, and it just frankly kinda wasn't...I was able to cringe through it when our Joe Schmoe Everyman (with the obligatory military background) went from being slightly cynical and all about dishing out justice and reviving civilization one toppled tyrant at a time...It was schlock, and incongruous with the vibe I was initially getting from the mc but considering what the story seemed to want to be, it made sense. Where story lost me, was around the middle where after showing the male antagonist Wertnick... or whatever his name was....what for, the mc gets called to a meeting with the female antagonist and decides, you know what...I trust this lady with my background, something about this situation is giving me an instinctual go ahead...
What was it that triggered the change of heart dear mc? Because she was a hot lady versus a handsome man? Was that it? Because I recall hearing terrible things about both of them...
Naturally things didn't turn out too terribly but.....At that point I fell out of the story. The rest of it was mostly decent but my heart was no longer in the read..l've read stories where the protagonist holds the idiot-ball, to some extent, some times it's just something that has to happen to move the plot along, if you can't think of a better way to do it...In this case though it was a little too glaringly obvious and mixed in with the MCs strangely apropos decision to remake the world he still basically knew nothing about, and the fact he hadn't really given me a sufficiently compelling reason to make me want him to succeed beyond his mc-status and the fact that the world was in need of change by mere virtue of being a post-apocalpyse, the story didn't do it for me

The author spends space and time to write about characters that he kills off in the following chapters. It's not enough that after 2 thousand years, all seven billion humans have perished from an apocalyptic-dystopian-sadistic-future-alternative-reality-Earth. Jack Bowman survived the "apocalypse" because wanted to earn half a million bucks from a health-trial that placed him in a "time capsule".
Main character, grieves fallen lovers, like changing clothes, without regrets or actual sorrow. So what can be fun in this violent (blood and gore) and deathly series? The fact that the main character has sex with every girl he comes across is not fun, nor entertaining, much less interesting. It just shows how instinctual and of what low emotional intelligence the main character and the author are. (Where their priorities lie). "It doesn't matter if my female companions die in the next chapter(s) as long as I have sex with them before they die". (This is Jack Bowman's attitude while in the apocalypse/hell-world).
Is survival enough of a main plot arc to read this sadistic-sociopathic-dystopian-novel series? No way in hell! (the dystopian hell that the author has created on purpose, supposedly to "entertain us"). Only a person with sociopathic/psychopathic tendencies would find a hell-like-Earth-a-fun-story-to-read. So a Death Wish is necessary.
With about 200+ pages, and 36 chapters, each chapter on average has about 6 pages, which usually means that there is little to no character or world development (because the author treats story like a journal of things that happened, instead of creating and investing in characters that three or four chapters later will just die a terrible and horrible violent death.

FUTURE REBORN by DANIEL PIERCE is the first in the series. FUTURE REBORN focuses on Jack Bowman , out of work veteran who,desperate for money, participates in an experiment. For $500.00 bucks Jack thinks he is participating in a day long experiment. Fast forward two thousand years and Jack is unearthed by two women in the desert on an Earth that is nothing but wasteland and oases. Ogres,monsters and really bad nasty stinking dudes abound. Jack, complete with nanites that were implanted into him before being put to sleep has decided that he wants to see a change. He wants to get rid of the bad guys and build a society of free people. Along with his new found friends we will see if Jack gets his wish.
In this humble readers opinion I felt that several things could change . One, Jack does NOT need to go to bed with every girl he meets and two , the plot needs to move more in the second episode or I'm out of here! Seriously, the sex every other paragraph was just a tad too much . More slash and fight, less sex and dull conversation!
Narration by Alexander Cendese was pretty good. Not to bad considering the amount of characters in the story.

Where to start? Think broke guy ending up in a time capsule that doesn't get popped open for two millennia and you've got a good grip on this one. The world has gone to shit. Destroyed by a designer virus, several thousand years sees humanity hanging on by its nails and sheer determination in a world reduced to a slivered shadow of its former self.
Enter Jack. Spend a few months in a tube contributing to science, they said. Worth $500k they said. Except the scientists didn't live long enough to uncork him. Buried under the sands of time, he awakes to a world gone mad. Thanks to the experiment, he's just the man to see it back on track.
The tone reminds me a bit of Hard Luck Hank. Light science long on action, we're taken along a trail filled with monsters, genetic aberrations, psychos, and good people just trying to survive. Score one for the little guy, this story hits all the right spots. This was an audio 'read' for me. The narrator brings a worthy performance that adds nicely to the tale. Waiting for book two.

The premises is good, not so much for the execution. The main character got everything handed to him, so many potential situations averted too easily for a world described as harsh and unforgiving. Equally, the main character remained unnaturally calm during every tense or stressful situation, which is incredibly unrealistic, no matter how many nanobots, sleep, or missed centuries there are. Everyone gets peeved, everyone irrationally acts in situations, but the main character somehow didn't all too frequently.
Despite all that, the book was okay. I'm hoping the future books will flesh out some maturity in the main character and delve deeper into situational problems of the new world he's awoken in. Considering I got to read this book for free through Audible, I'm giving it a solid 3 stars with the secret hope of the second book being better.

Originally I wanted to give this a single star, but in retrospect I’m giving it two. The book was bit of a chore to read. It felt more like a stream-of-consciousness outline than a fleshed out and edited novel.
The protagonist spends (or author, rather) way to much time monologing his intentions and rehashing his backstory.
The supporting characters are flat and there is no growth or struggle bringing them to the protagonists ‘team’.
Additionally the plot takes some random jumps that left me scratching my head wondering how in the hell we got to that.
There was no real antagonist, just a couple of possible hooks for ones that the story runs into the ground before they even grow legs.
In the end the story thought arc could have been good, but a lack of writing maturity let it down.

Not bad kindle unlimited series
Very good book for a voracious reader with Amazon kindle unlimited subscription. It will be a series and is a pretty fun sorry to follow along. Not a good book to purchase as a stand alone or the only book you'll read this month. Characters and plot are pretty straight forward and lack depth at this point... But that's the beauty of a series. The author has time and plenty of angles to turn this into a great plot and flesh out the characters, maybe even come back and tweak this book after exploring more of the characters. Like I said worth it for subscribers, not likely worth the investment for one shot precise

Unrealized potential
I liked his writing style, but he needs an editor. Badly.
It became clear that the first few chapters were written after the rest of the book. They are more polished, and contain details and characters that contradict later chapters. The later chapters get formulaic, and the entire work has redundancies and wasted time that I found jarring.
The text was easily read and light on serious proofreading errors.
Lots of potential, but he needs to talk to a better writing group, one that will help him realize that potential.

The best new series I've started this year!
Wow! This is one of those books that has absolutely everything needed to make an addicting story. The action is non-stop, but there is a complex plot to hold it all together. And then there's the fabulous threesome, as pictured in the front cover. Mira and Silk are the perfect heroines to keep Jack satisfied. Each character is carefully crafted and developed as they come together to create a futuristic world lost in time. Daniel Pierce has earned a place on my top ten favorite authors list with this instant classic.

The plot was great but the writing was not very polished. The author had some good ideas but did not have the skill to pull it off. The author will, with time, develop a great style to go with his great ideas, but he is not there yet.
The writing is unpolished and a bit primitive. As I was reading the story I kept thinking that it was disjointed. There was not a nice even flow.
There were also some issues with the characters knowing too much or too little at critical points. Their emotional depth was that of a kiddie swimming pool.

What a crazy world!
Wow! Imagine the world 2000 years from now. Now imagine it 2000 years from now with a plaque outbreak. I can’t. This story was well written, creative and imaginative. A story where even though so much time has past there was still high tech and other modern things written into the story in a believable way. Fantastic! This story grabbed me from the start. The narration was absolutely fantastic, it’s always fun to hear Alexander Cendese tell a story.
This story has an HEA. I recommend this book.

Good tale for a start.
For a first novel, this was an interesting approach. It felt as though there were some parts that were not completed. What happened to the materials found where Jack was found? They never went back to explore it. What happened to the outpost? Is Jack going to overhaul the city? What about getting justice for the armourer's wife? The information found on the laptop? Maybe if there is a sequel, more will be answered.

Mad Max on steroids....without the vehicles
MC is a bad ass marine hard for cash. He sold his body to science for mullah but it all goes wrong. Story cranks up about a quarter of the way through the book and I appreciate the author not throwing In random sex scenes for filler. It's a lot of pain in this story and a nice uppercut near the beginning. Supporting characters have great person with and Mira as a bad ass chick. Give it a try. I know ill be tuning in for book 2

It was okay until the end, where they spend quite a bit of time saying how they were going to give an appropriate punishment to the people running or using the dark room (or whatever it was called) and then when it's crunch time, he changes his mind all of a sudden.
Are you kidding me?! Personal opinions aside of what the appropriate punishment should have been for people like that, you can't build up a whole thing only to change your mind at the last second and expect me not to feel cheated.

Awesome
This is one of the most interesting and great stories about a man who chances upon a new era of the future. This is one of the best series I've had the pleasure of reading in a while it is well written and the story line makes you want the next book in the series. A story of passion and intreage is a truly unique saga about sportsmanship wizardry and the story line makes you want the best for your life.

Way better than expected
I wasn't expecting much from post apocalyptic harem, but I was blown away at the level of writing, the intelligent story,and witty dialogue all crafted an engaging adventure. The characters are vibrant and setting vivid. I think I might have found a new author to follow.

Good sci-fi
I chose this because the title intrigued me. The story was well paced and had a good mix of genre. The science, action and adult action were speed and blended very well. I look forward to further adventure series of Jack's. I will also look for more from Daniel Pierce.

Not what I expected.
I’ll be honest I started reading this thinking it was going to be very meh; couldn’t have been more wrong. It is well written (some grammatical errors but I’ll forgive those) and the story is quite believable. If you’re on the fence, it is absolutely worth the read.
