I'm a sucker for sci-fi and real sucker for Dystopian stories. Amari provides both, and overall it is a good story. Even though I think the 'one-world goverment' theme is over-used a bit these days (in this case, the bad guys are the UN), there was enough of a twist on the theme here to make it interesting. There were some good twists in the story and I found myself caring for most of the major players involved.As some other reviews have pointed out, there are a few typos, but I don't mark down writers for that. If you develop a good plot and throw in character I care about, then that makes up for any technicial flaws that may exist. And that's exactly what Mr. Atwood does.Overall I enjoyed the book!If you're a fan of science fiction with a little present-day relevance, give it a shot!
