"The book has lots of good twists and an interesting futuristic
society." -- reader review "The characters were well developed and
the suspense kept me turning the pages " -- reader review "As
someone who generally isn't interested in science fiction, I liked
this book because the people and their experiences were the focus
rather than the science fiction...I enjoyed seeing the characters
come into their own...I did not anticipate the ending - it was a
great twist" -- reader review Call of Destiny is part one of the
series: One Small Step out of the Garden of Eden. The series, set
five hundred years after the first Apollo moon landing, follows
four young adults through their journey to find themselves and
their place in the universe. The series is written for adults but
has a PG-13 audience and can be enjoyed by ages 15 and up.
