Goodreads reviews for The Enigma Nexus:

Creative, intelligent and original.......
I very much enjoyed Janine's extraordinary novel about a team of scientist heading off to the future to save the past.

The novel has many unexpected twists and turns, has very strong likeable characters and her writing is full of delightful environmental detail....just loved it!

Cathy Mclean

This gentle and humane sci-fi novel is a delightful read. It is the story of a group of scientists who travel to the far future to learn how to save the world. The descriptions of a post-industrial world where nature has now taken over are beautiful - I felt I was there, enveloped in that peaceful sylvan environment. The author clearly know their stuff as regards science…

Goodreads Reviews of The Enigma Nexus previous version, Vas Solaris - Expedition Hope (no longer available)

“I thoroughly enjoyed this intriguing and gentle read. Bell explores the direction humanity is heading but with a spotlight on hope.
Our earth's biodiversity is beautifully described which will delight those that love the natural world but also heightens the sadness at its potential end.
The plot follows the lives of 6 astronauts and their journey through space and the unveiling of a new world.
I also enjoyed the scientific observations and applications and regarding fiction there are some clever mind bending ideas. Looking forward to the sequel.” A Marriner.
