I loved this book! If you are interested in the social dynamic between different races, moral and ethical plots, and action, this is a great book to read. It's certainly dark and has a lot of tough topics but I enjoyed the way it made me think.

This book has a fascinating concept and message. The story was dark and at times brutal. In places more than was good for me. The message gets 5 stars. My emotional response gives 3 stars. I didn’t fall into this needing to hear more. Overall, a good book if you like a good philosophical debate/discussion.
