This is a dark sci-fi book involving dystopian scenarios, a psychotic protagonist that seems to be an anti-hero or a villain, well-developed characters, disturbing themes, and some aspects from the worst side of humanity. It sounds pretty interesting for me. Congrats on BOTD to the author! Thanks for the review!

Thank you for this review. I guess this is a sneak peek of what might be happening in the nearest future and it kind of spurred me into thinking about what the future holds. Congratulations on BOTD

You had me at the psychotic protagonist and then pulled me in even more about the mind-bending story and questioning sanity. I absolutely love books like this that make me question things and especially those based in a science fiction world. Thank you for the BOTD review! It sounds amazing.
The most extraordinary thing about those long-ago times was that privileged families were allowed to gain unfair advantage for their children, by paying to send them to the best schools with the best teachers and the best facilities.

Just from the review, I give credit to the one who read and finished it. I can’t imagine reading this seemingly mind- blowing complex book to the finish. Thanks, you deserve the best.

I love a good psychotic character, and a psychotic character that thinks he’s Satan sounds right up my alley. The book sounds like science fiction with a mind-warping boost. I have to wonder if this utopia truly is utopia or—like Dune believes—Hell (or a kind of hell). Thank you for the helpful review.

Thank you for the informative review. I'm glad you enjoyed it so much. I don't believe it is for me as I don't care for most science fiction books, but it sounds like those who do love that genre will be very pleased with this book.

The central theme of the book seems complicated for me. I will give it a pass. Thanks for a wonderful review!

Though I like to read the books featuring sci-fi and dystopia, this one seems to be a unique blend of both in the sense that the characters are non-human, or at least they believe themselves them to be so.

I am into sci-fi, but this one sounds a little bit dark for me. I might check it out though just to see what happens with Dune and the other 'Nats'. Well-rounded review.

I think the change in morality would be nerving for me. So, I'm going to pass on this one.

This seems like an interesting science fiction novel but based on your review it seems a bit dark for my liking. Thank you for you review.

The mind bending dark sci-fi definitely sounds very interesting and fascinating. Although the review mentioned some disturbing things the intrigue to read the story is more for me. I would love to delve in to the story as soon as possible. Congrats on BOTD!!

An anti-hero who is also psychotic is certainly interesting. I am curious to see how Dune brings his plans to fruition. This book seems like it will be a wild and interesting ride so congratulations on BOTD.
