I think this is an excellent book, if you're looking for something hard hitting and haven't read much from various escapees from North Korea this is for you. It doesn't go into any uncharted territory but it doesn't need to, using the game of DnD to highlight how insane real life is for those in North Korea. I appreciated that it didn't feel the need to push a moral agenda or go over the top as some WW2 stories feel the need. It did lack brilliance, sometimes the characters felt a little too dry, but it achieved all it set out to do and I was not bored at any point. It is, in every way, a decent book.… (altro)
