My Review
This was an interesting book. I liked being exposed to this new world created by Mr. Litwack. The story plot and premise kept me engaged and the characters were different but overall I dont know I just felt like something was missing but I couldnt think of what, then I figured it out: I wasnt connected to the book, I couldnt relate. The prose in a book could be interesting as it can get but if a reader is not connected to the book that wont matter.So in the end I would have to say this book was ok but the problem enlies that the author has created a very inventive world, that I wanted to really like but sadly I think the book was too inventive for its own good and lost its connection with its audience. Overall I cant recommend it.
