"A fast-paced read that will keep your attention. [...] Baldwin seamlessly blends space opera/space colonization style with some romance and with bio-engineering"








From Reviews of CONDITIONED RESPONSE

"Conditioned Response gripped me hard from the beginning...the pace is relentless. Few first novels reach this level of art."
~^~

"This is one of the most intriguing, action-packed, and emotionally charged novels I have read in a long time. Conditioned Response is something that can definitely be read again and again."
~^~

"I did not want to stop reading this story. I can hardly wait for the prequel & sequel.[...]I have never re-read any other author. period. But this book make it easy."
~^~

"This is a super fast paced story [...] Characters are wonderfully fleshed out. I will definitely be reading more by this author. 
~^~

"Those who enjoy a detailed social Sci-Fi in the old tradition...peopled by solid, complicated personalities, have found one of the best examples written recently. Conditioned Response is multi-layered...mysteries [in] a fast paced thriller. What [Baldwin] does do well, she does very well indeed.

"I felt Raif's distress...his heartbreak...his anguish...and his frustration. [...] I felt Shayla's pain...loneliness...[need for a] sense of belonging. [...] I admit the romantic thread in the book took time to develop but it was very strong. Remember, this is not a romance novel. It's Romantic SF with mystery/suspense style plotting."
~^~

"The interactions and unfolding histories of the characters were intriguing. I fell in love with Raif... the last third of the book was definitely ... an emotional rollercoaster."
~^~

"This is my first time reading a sci-fi book and I cannot wait to read book #1! [...] I couldn't get the characters out of my dreams! I stayed up late and couldn't wait to get home to finish the book. [...] If you are a sci-fi lover you'd be crazy NOT to read this book"
