Recensioni

A nice read

A good read. I would have rated it four stars but there were a few areas that were very slow. This book is worth reading if you read the first one

I read this one a while ago and turns out never got around to reviewing it. Very different plot but it has strong resemblances in tone to The Handmaids Tale. Strange how society can break down in such ways - yet it is possible. This one is well written, great character development but cringe-worthy in the best way possible. For dystopian fans.

This was a terrific read from an author whose other books I’ve also enjoyed. He takes a perfectly realistic scenario (in this case, identifying potential Muslim terrorists before they commit a violent act) into a “what if” thriller: the designer of the technology learns that the results are being manipulated, resulting in large numbers of innocents being labeled as “undesirables,” subject to detainment and deportation.

The story starts out measured and a bit slow, but stick with it—once it takes hold, you won’t be able to put this book down. The research is flawless, the prose is perfect, there’s enough action to keep you turning the pages, and the story is thought provoking. I had to remind myself that this was “only fiction.” Highly recommended.

Disclaimer: As a beta reader, I was provided with a free copy of this book by the author. The opinions expressed in this review are mine alone.

Questa recensione è stata scritta per gli Omaggi dei Membri di LibraryThing .
Sad story - whoever won the Russian civil war, eventually Hitler and nazi Germany would emerge on the scenes of the Europe and the rest of the world. Very interesting book (and rather educational), with so little novels on the "whites", since the history as well literature is written by the winners- in this case -the "reds".
