Social Media Madness12/21/2022 When an author rarely uses social media for personal use and discovers all the IG stories lenses and emojis and is overexcited that her book is arriving in the hands of bookish readers.

Happy dance, A Chanticleer Book Reviews12/13/2022 "Almeida gives readers a glimpse at a world coming to grips with direct access to this afterlife which is completely and undeniably real. Governments as well as popular culture must deal with new questions. Should humans have access to immortality? Who ultimately controls this virtual world? Who acts as God within the machine? This story explores the depths of these questions." Read more here. Publishers Weekly Booklife Review11/21/2022 "This epic of vulnerable digital landscapes that draw readers in with its emotional punch and existential quandaries." "Great for fans of Becky Chambers’s A Closed and Common Orbit; Daniel Suarez’s Daemon." Read more here. Reader Views Review11/21/2022 "I’m completely captivated by this first book, “Unanimity” and can’t wait for the rest of the story to unfold in the upcoming books. This series will resonate highly with sci-fi enthusiasts that enjoy intricate, well-developed stories with remarkable characters, skillful world-building, and the draw of the ever-expanding role of science in our lives."

Reader's Favorite Review11/21/2022 "I adored this work by Alexandra Almeida from cover to cover for its modern take on fantasy and the subversion of so many typical themes and ideas that have become tired and overdone in the genre." "The queer storytelling elements are included beautifully and never made into a gimmick or overdone for the sake of themselves, and as such, they flow naturally with the fantasy and emotional elements of the narrative. I would not hesitate to recommend Unanimity as a sensational opening novel to a very promising series." Read more here. Foreword Clarion Review11/21/2022 "In the intricate science fiction novel Unanimity, a virtual world collides with reality as flawed digital gods wrestle for control over the future." Read more here. SPR Review11/21/2022 "A wildly original start to a sci-fi series, this intricately woven tale is intoxicatingly original, teasing the edges of reality and fiction. With a subtle storytelling style that is both immersive and patiently coy, Almeida has crafted an ambitious existential treat for fans of near-future sci-fi." Read more here. AuthorArchives
