![]() ![]() ![]() Even Rose - Ben's wife is mainly there as a hinderance. My only real issue with the book is that it is a bit of a sausage fest, there aren't any strong female characters or indeed any characters that aren't in the book except to be a plaything for the male characters. I think that Mollart does a good job of switching between the two enough that it keeps the reader engaged and asking important questions.Īs I said I am not usually a dystopian reader so I cannot compare this book to many others but I thought that the world building was great but I would have liked a little more explanation of how the world got that way (but have a feeling there may be other books so maybe it gets explained then) but what we do get is a short leap from understandable. There are two strands of story told from very different viewpoints, Ben, who is one of the 'sleepers' trying to live in the new world order and Peruzzi who watches over the sleepers. ![]() As someone who is not usually a dystopian genre reader I was surprised how intrigued by this book I was from just the blurb, so when I got the change to read it I snapped it up. ![]()
