Dr. O and the Eco-X by Aaron T. Knight is a creative and unique science fiction story that centers around a doctor’s innovative invention to eliminate the world of plastic and pollution. Dr. O’s successful idea results in a small species of insects, known as the Eco-X, that consume plastics, petroleum waste, and pollutants to clean the planet. Initially, this plan works perfectly until the Eco-X evolves too quickly and consumes far more than expected, creating a disaster with bizarre and exciting consequences.

The author offers a fun and thrilling read that will keep readers captivated from start to finish. As the Eco-X catches the attention globally, it becomes a magnet for media sensation. It creates a new pop-culture icon that quickly excites and terrifies simultaneously. Despite the potential for danger and destruction, this novel offers some lighthearted and humorous moments that create a lively adventure for the reader. It is the ideal action-adventure framed with a unique sci-fi concept and written exceptionally well.

I enjoyed this brilliant story, which explores all the implications of “releasing” a genetically engineered insect into a world where there are many factors to consider, from legal complications and licensing the use of Eco-X for profit to the biological and societal impact. The author explores all the dark and funny aspects of Dr. O’s creation and how a seemingly simple solution to a complex problem can quickly unravel.

I found Aaron T. Knight’s Dr. O and the Eco-X to be a fantastic read that’s quickly absorbed as a wonderfully unique and entertaining tale. It is a fun story that I highly enjoyed due to the author’s humorous take on a science fiction disaster and the ability to keep me turning pages. Readers who enjoy thoughtful and offbeat sci-fi tales with an eco twist will enjoy Dr. O and the Eco-X.
