Thanks for the review. It sounds like this book could be considered very anti-gun and not suitable for sensitive readers. With today's society having all these shootings, I wonder how well this book will do in the wake of such tragedies such as Las Vegas and now this shooting in the small church in Texas?

This is a fascinating review of how would people react if they were in essence told that their immediate future would be to die.The possibility that some would settle scores and take revenge because they know they will not be alive to deal with the consequences is frightening. This sounds like a thought-provoking book centered around gun control.

This sci-fi story is a great story because of the different inventions that the characters are using, i know that those inventions can be possibly be made because nowadays our life is full of gadgets machineries and etc. As time goes by, the technologies will all upgrade and many inventions will come.

Amazing science fiction story that dives into the gun control issue and adds predictive death as a plot. I loved this book and rated it 3 out of 4 stars. Congrats #BOTD

A lot of this book sounds really intriguing, but I typically try to steer clear of fiction books that are trying to sell me on a political viewpoint. I get enough of that in my daily life.

I think the premise of this book to be rather novel. I imagine that the device creates a certain amount of dread to go with it! How would you feel if you work up in the morning to find the display on your watch had changed into a counter. I don't think I could wear one. Thanks for the great review.

Wow, this sounds like an intense novel full of topics that can be difficult to talk about for many. Gun control has been a huge topic of conversation in my town as of late following the Church shooting. Great topic for a book. I am curious to see how it intermingles with these watches.Thank you for sharing and great job on the review.
