    5.0 out of 5 stars Altered my brain chemistry!
    Reviewed in Australia on 7 December 2024
    Verified Purchase
    I binged this book in about 4 hours and spent a good few hours after it ended just sitting in silence pondering, everything. Life, the universe, what happens when I’m no longer here, what happens milennia from now. That’s when you know you’ve read something truly mind altering to the point where that silence is needed to try and piece your brain back together.

    The plot was well crafted following the race of technology advancement that has the ability to allow for immortality and then what happens if and when they get there. The FMC Elodie’s internal conflict about her faith and her desire to advance technology and knowledge was tough to read. It reminded me of those neurotic kids I went to school with who were so wound up with anxiety over conflict between right and wrong they couldn’t ever have any fun. However, for those whose faith shapes who they are, I can appreciate the length of time Elodie took to have her lightbulb moment. Some questions I had of a couple of minor characters still linger in my mind now, but in the grander scheme of the story it’s negligible - my own curiosity more so.

    So much happening for a 4 hour read. At times I found myself re-reading a few lines here and there towards the end of the story to fully understand what was happening, but I’m not surprised by this. I had to make my reading brain evolve as fast as the characters did to keep up with them.

    Thank you Adam Bronwnlie for creating another reading slump for me while I take time to process.

    I'm not one to usually read the science-fiction genre, but this took my eye and proceeded to keep me interested from beginning to end.
    I found it easy to read and it hooked me frim cover to cover, as I was always keen to pick it back up and find out what happens next.
    Adam Brownlie does a superb job at writing an interesting and thought-provoking story. Being able to write about a world that has no physical form was also quite a skill.
    Thank you for this riveting journey through a new genre for me.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Shift in mortality in the age of AI
    Reviewed in Japan on 17 February 2025
    Verified Purchase
    Typically, I find sci-fi or philosophical stories difficult to read. However, this short book is not only easy to read but also kept me thinking about the characters and situations a while after finishing the book.

    The way Elodie, the main charactor, struggles between faith and scientific growth draws me into the story. These days, there is endless discussion and news about the remarkable pace of AI development. What makes Brownlie’s storytelling clever is how he incorporates aspects of the AI development into his work.

    The thing that still has me thinking is how Elodie and her daughter faced their mortality. It made me think about how my children and I might accept scientific advancement as we face our mortality. This story maked me contemplate the meaning of belief, life, and love. I recommend this to anyone looking for a story that challenges you to think about these fundamental questions

    5.0 out of 5 stars Bittersweet, nuanced, intriguing and beautiful
    Reviewed in India on 5 December 2024
    Verified Purchase
    The Last Gods is a beautiful journey of exploring the finer nuances of life, like the differences of beliefs and opinions among lovers, family and friends, which are then superimposed with massive technological advancements through multiple time leaps. We get to witness one woman’s life evolve from where we are at right now, all the way to the end of the universe, and yet contain the same themes of grief, guilt and growth that accompany our regular lives. It is a remarkable experiment in running a prediction of how society might evolve through the technological advancements that we humans are already working on, should they come to pass. It is also a spiritual journey for mankind, slowly evolving and giving birth to what can only be described as God. In summary, a beautifully crafted andlayered, multi-dimensional science fiction novel that can just as easily belong in the genre - Slice of Life.

    The Last Gods by Adam Brownlee offers a fresh take on the fantasy genre, exploring the fallibility of ourselves in a richly constructed world. The narrative is a thoughtful blend of action and philosophy, inviting readers to reflect on power, belief, and morality. The characters are well-developed, and the story is engaging and thought-provoking. Brownlee’s prose is elegant, providing depth without overwhelming the reader. If you're looking for a fantasy novel that challenges conventional tropes while delivering an immersive experience, The Last Gods is a rewarding read.

    5.0 out of 5 stars A Moral Dichotomy
    Reviewed in Canada on 26 September 2024
    Verified Purchase
    Through The Last Gods, author Adam masterfully weaves a unique tale of scientific progress and human immortality. I quite enjoyed this book, particularly the philosophical (and sometimes heated) conversations had between various characters surrounding the morality of scientific intervention in human's lives.

    The characters were very well developed, with enough internal monologue and backstories sprinkled throughout to draw you in without bogging you down with too much. Each character has their own beliefs, coping mechanisms and imperfections and it's easy to feel compassion for them.

    I was thrilled that so many moral dilemmas and resulting thoughtful reflections were jammed into such a brief read. It can be tricky to pull off a well-rounded science fiction novel, that gets the reader considering their own beliefs, in less than 200 hundred pages but it was done effortlessly. A great thing about this book - and a sure way to judge the success of a science-fiction novel in my opinion - is that the science, progression and resolution all seem completely plausible in the real world - a scary thought!

    Even being science-heavy, The Last Gods is an easy and entertaining read that I would recommend for young adult readers and up. If you are a science-fiction buff, this one will not disappoint!

    5.0 out of 5 stars Thought-provoking contemporary sci-fi.
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 28 February 2025
    Verified Purchase
    I’m a big sci-fi fan, especially contemporary sci-fi because it touches on so many current issues that we can relate to. The Last Gods was no exception, and I feel that Brownlie is an author who really understands the genre and how to use it.

    Despite its short length, The Last Gods doesn’t feel like it lacks volume. There are some really interesting themes, like religion, love, the morals of future technology and even some ideas about the climate crisis. The two main characters were an interesting case of opposites attract, and their differing moral belief systems allow the story to touch on all of these different themes.

    I really liked Elodie’s character, and unlike some other reviewers, I liked her all the way through! I find faith a really interesting topic, and it’s such a uniquely human thing, that she acts as a great obstacle to the tech advancements that aim to try and recreate us. Throughout the story, she does open towards these advancements, but her faith and love for those around her, remains to the end.

    Looking forward to seeing more from this contemporary sci-fi author!
