Wow, truly amazing.

Interesting POV on what the future might hold

Excellent writing and characters, a terrifyingly plausible future, all made for an insightful look at what people do and are capable of doing in these types of horrible circumstances. Can’t wait for his next novel!

It’s been a few months since I’ve read this book, but as someone who usually avoids books about war, I’m really glad I read this one. It is definitely more of a speculative fiction with decent commentary about race and class. Overall, extremely enjoyable and thoughtful.

The book’s core premise of environmental disruption is ominously plausible. However, the storyline is fundamental flawed. The author completely misses on the ethnic composition of his apocalyptic South. African Americans comprise a vast percentage of Southerners. They are essentially nonexistent in this book, with no explanation as to why. This casts a pall of illogic over the entire book.

Wow very thought provoking,

Extremely well written

This was a great read, very conceivable near future with an unexpected twist and compelling characters.
