Review: Might make a good movie...

I like dystopian scifi and I liked the story premise behind this book. If it were made into a movie, I'd probably enjoy it more than I enjoyed the book. In fact, it reminded me a little of Mockingjay, the third book in the Hunger Games trilogy.I found the main character, Adrian Temple, too cocky to really relate to. There were so many villains it was hard to believe there could be so many horrible people in the world, let alone a single book.The writing style and language were not to my taste. There were run-on sentences that included far too much description, repeating the same words and phrases. Conversely, the action sequences - and this is an action-filled story - were so light on detail as to make them difficult to believe.I think it could be a good story, if improved with considerable editing.I received a free copy of this book for an honest, non-reciprocal review.
