This future society has very distinct classes that must adhere to certain rules, including only understanding Englaise and the language of their class. Derting¿s world-building is excellent, if not very detailed. The first half of the book is quite information heavy and drags a bit, but once you hit the halfway mark, it takes off.Netherlandhttp://acreed2liveby.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-37833939196261994432012-02-02T23:43:22.282+01:002012-02-02T23:43:22.282+01:00I love this book...absolutely love it. :)I love this book...absolutely love it. :)Tara Parsellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15371722859323196164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-987167496142681464.post-36872310274182392422011-08-17T13:54:33.644+02:002011-08-17T13:54:33.644+02:00This one is on my wishlist already.
