I am glad you liked the book, I have just finished it as well. I liked some of the the story, but the "planning" you so enjoyed bored me to death I love sci-fi novels and I read tons of them, maybe it is why this one didn't really stand out for me. Some parts of the story really feel like they were abandoned ideas - 10 pages long walk to the palace through the park with "live" sculptures, what that was about? Well, I am glad you liked the book. Happy reading!

I agree with everybody that the spelling and grammar errors are annoying, and Pennington makes some odd word choices. He really needed a good editor. I'm only a quarter-way through, so I can't say what I think of the plot just yet. On the other hand, I do like the world-building so far.

I just wish that Pennington would define words like "inseligence" and "psionipath." He also used the word "narcissist" to describe some type of servant, which struck me as weird. I know sci-fi often has neologisms, but it's a bit distracting to see a funny word and not fully know what it means.

Andreas sounds like an interesting character. I wonder about the other characters. I suppose there is his love interest, but does he have a friend that also belongs to the lowest race, and does he get left behind when Andreas goes to fight in the war?
Thank you for the review!

I love how detailed your review is, and how you structured it. I think I could learn a thing or two from this. I've read the book and I enjoyed it.

I enjoyed this book just as I do most sci-fi books, because they take us to a world of uninhibited possibilities. The setting, which is in another planet where humans moved after the extinction of life on Earth, was what I loved most. I believe that we can create a life outside of Earth, especially now that the quality of life here has been degraded by pollution, overpopulation and other issues. I just felt like the plot was a bit difficult to understand as it took me a while. Also, the names chosen were hard but, I guess the author had to give the story an extra-terrestrial feel.
