This one was bizarre. It was a three to begin with because of the jumps between locations and characters with no clear indication or really a pattern to the jumps and you just had to get used to the rhythm, and then he doesn't utilise that style again. Then the story actually got going and I thought I could forgive pass grievances and it became a four star book with the lovely dystopian fears we all have if we have a modicum of sense. But then it just ends. I don't like my conclusions spoon fed to me but I do like a book to have one. Hence the 3 star. Not as good as We and 1984 but ok. Almost like it needed 100 or so more pages.
