Eden Serum (Audible Audio Edition) Angelique S Anderson Scott Cummings Books
This book is a very readable and fun science fiction romance. Its fast pace and plot twists made it feel like a screenplay for a summer sci fi action thriller. There were a couple of times the plot genuinely surprised me and made me sit up in my chair and take notice. That rarely happens to me any more as a reader, even with science fiction.Having worked in the biotech industry, I didn’t find the life-extension science here to be particularly believable, even in the near future, but the author did enough research and told a good enough story that I was willing to (mostly) suspend disbelief in an immortality serum and go along for the ride. I had a harder time believing that the underlying conspiracy could have gone on for as long as it did without being found out and shut down much sooner. There are already a number of biotech companies and even more academic labs working on the problem of life extension, so Plant Harmonics would not have been alone in that space. And even in our own time, if a tech company’s technology is thought to be fraudulent or even based on shaky data, the market shows signs of being self-correcting. For example, look at the rise and precipitous fall of Theranos.
The characters were appealing, but were pretty standard SF heroes and villains. Adam, the protagonist, was recognizable as a Silicon Valley overachiever who had lost the art of relationships. Evelyn was realistic but we didn’t learn much more about her than that she was pretty, spunky, and loyal to family. Watching these two characters get together romantically as they solve a massive technological conspiracy was enjoyable but not particularly memorable. The villains had some interesting, even poignant motivations for doing what they did, but I think they needed to be much more devious.
I would read other books by this author as I think she writes intelligently and has ideas about corporate invasion of privacy that deserve to be fleshed out further. With this novel she seems to be on the path of finding her own voice and exploring the themes that she finds most important.

Eden Serum (Audible Audio Edition) Angelique S Anderson Scott Cummings Books Reviews
When I started this book, I had a hard time getting into it. It seemed to be written for MG or YA as far as the style, but the topic did not fit those categories. Approximately half way through it though, the author hit her stride and the story took off from there.
If you were very wealthy and someone was offering a "serum" to give you immortality would you take it? Would you pay the exorbitant fee to be assured that you would never grow old, never die, never get sick?
Adam has a good life. He has developed a technology that allows everyone to be tracked and their identities to be safe from theft. He's making great money, has just been offered a massive promotion, and he's met a woman he could see himself spending his life with. But there is a serpent in his personal paradise. The company he works for has far too much knowledge of his personal life. They even know that he has decided to take Eden's Serum, the drug that purports to make you immortal. Despite the red flags and some serious misgivings, Adam goes through with the procedure and that's when his perfect life rapidly begins to fall apart.
Eden's Serum is a wild ride through corporate espionage, murder, privacy invasion, lies, and out of control technology. Hang on to your hats because it gets bumpy from here.
Adam Carpenter, software tycoon for Indenticoin, the worlds largest virtual tracking system, is finally ready to make the decision of a lifetime.
He is going to pay the $2MM price tag, to receive Eden's Serum, a special injection which will freeze the aging process, virtually giving him immortality.
But just as he is finalizing the procedure, he begins to have second thoughts. He notices, the doctor administering the injections, who exclusively endorses the revolutionary procedure worldwide, is lying about receiving the injection himself.
Despite the doctors lies, Adam is too self-centered to reject the opportunity and receives the serum. Shortly after, his life as he knows it begins to spiral out of control. His body is counteracting the serum, and he will be dead in less than a week if he does not find an antidote. But he may not even make it a week, because snooping around, looking for answers about Eden's Serum just put a death mark on his back.
This book was exciting from beginning to end. I didn't care much for Adam at the beginning as he was very self-centered, but the author did an excellent job placing Adam in a situation he was able to learn and grow from. By the end of the book, he was a completely changed man. For the better.
This book is a very readable and fun science fiction romance. Its fast pace and plot twists made it feel like a screenplay for a summer sci fi action thriller. There were a couple of times the plot genuinely surprised me and made me sit up in my chair and take notice. That rarely happens to me any more as a reader, even with science fiction.
Having worked in the biotech industry, I didn’t find the life-extension science here to be particularly believable, even in the near future, but the author did enough research and told a good enough story that I was willing to (mostly) suspend disbelief in an immortality serum and go along for the ride. I had a harder time believing that the underlying conspiracy could have gone on for as long as it did without being found out and shut down much sooner. There are already a number of biotech companies and even more academic labs working on the problem of life extension, so Plant Harmonics would not have been alone in that space. And even in our own time, if a tech company’s technology is thought to be fraudulent or even based on shaky data, the market shows signs of being self-correcting. For example, look at the rise and precipitous fall of Theranos.
The characters were appealing, but were pretty standard SF heroes and villains. Adam, the protagonist, was recognizable as a Silicon Valley overachiever who had lost the art of relationships. Evelyn was realistic but we didn’t learn much more about her than that she was pretty, spunky, and loyal to family. Watching these two characters get together romantically as they solve a massive technological conspiracy was enjoyable but not particularly memorable. The villains had some interesting, even poignant motivations for doing what they did, but I think they needed to be much more devious.
I would read other books by this author as I think she writes intelligently and has ideas about corporate invasion of privacy that deserve to be fleshed out further. With this novel she seems to be on the path of finding her own voice and exploring the themes that she finds most important.
