This review is well written! It gives an excellent summary of the plot without giving too much away. It includes an accurate description of the subject base and character development. However, since it is a book about a dystopian society with creepy animal experiments, I'm going to have to pass. This stuff gives me nightmares!

Ultimatum by Vladimir Fleurisma is an extremely intriguing work of art that explores and infuses the elements of a post-apocalyptic world in a futuristic time when scientific experiments have backlashed into a serious abnormality. The work enriches the themes embedded in the book and sprinkles other elements of prose; suspense, action, and lots of humor. Creating the book based on a man-made worldwide catastrophe exemplifies "Ultimatum" as a dystopian science fiction creation. The title itself depicts that there's limited time for survival as it relays the embodiments of the word "Ultimatum"– a calculated period that is given to complete a process. In the book, the process itself is the journey to the Three Mile Island which seeks to shed a ray of hope on D, the protagonist of the novel. What's more exciting is the review is written exquisitely; one that aims to enthrall thousands of readers.

Your review, as good as it was, didn't prepare me for the sample read from the book. Some Sci-fi is okay, but this dystopian world is too much for me. I do have to commend the author on making you feel like you are in a movie, seeing all the surroundings around you, and the realistic sounds read like an audible, in an apocalyptic world. I'm sure you Sci-fi readers will enjoy this one.

Amazing review! Dystopian as a whole has a very specific audience but this appears to be a phenomenal read! Mutant animals, a Marine trying to save the world, and a third world war, this has all the makings of a serious thriller!

"Ultimatum" by Vladimir Jepthe Fleurisma presents a gripping dystopian world marred by a man-made catastrophe. The narrative's intense pace and detailed descriptions immerse readers in a post-apocalyptic landscape. The characters, especially D, are well-developed and engaging. Fleurisma's blending of genres and seamless storytelling make this a must-read for sci-fi enthusiasts.

"Ultimatum" by Vladimir Jepthe Fleurisma is a gripping dive into the depths of a dystopian nightmare. The author's portrayal of a man-made global catastrophe and the consequences that follow is both thought-provoking and unsettling. The destruction of valuable natural resources and the emergence of deformed, genetically altered animals serve as a stark warning about the potential consequences of unchecked scientific experimentation. Fleurisma's ability to craft a world on the brink of chaos is truly commendable.

“Ultimatum” by Bladimir Fleurisma is a dystopian science fiction story about a man-made worldwide catastrophe. A big science experiment gone awry has spread plaque and deformed animals. The 50-year resource war ended in a nuclear fire and 18 months later a super predator is attempting to control the world. A marine named D has one mission, to reach Three Mile Island. He will kill anything in his way or die trying. He must succeed in order to save the world. Sci-fi lovers will really enjoy this book. The fact that the entire world is in danger makes this a great read for all members. Very good review.

This is way to much sci-fi for me, so I won't be reading this. However, to those who loves full on sci-fi books would truly enjoy this. Thanks for a excellent and detailed review.

In this dystopian sci-fi novel, how a catastrophe impacts globally and how its consequences force our planet to accept a new order seem intriguingly interesting.

I’m not a huge fan of apocalyptic narratives- but the plot sounds thrilling and action-packed! I wonder what will happen to D on his mission!

This well-written science-fiction novel sounds like the main character encounters action, adventures, and surprises. It definitely sounds like it will be difficult to put it down. Great review!

I'm not a huge fan of stories that describe the future of Earth's society as dystopian. Even though it's a science-fiction novel, I rather read a story about a brighter future. Those who are fans of this genre will enjoy the adventure "D" goes on to reach the Three Mile Island. Congratulations to the author for having the BOTD.
