Not very original and the writing is overblown.

The Inhuman Race features a Ceylon in 2033, where the British never left and the Houses of Kandy still exist.. Science fiction is a genre that I don’t usually pursue but with this epic blurb, how could I not??
I’m glad I did. This was a diverting read; combining elements of both the past and the future, the familiar and the unimagined, with some dry Sri Lankan humour thrown in. I wished this book were longer: more about the dystopian system and why and how things are the way they are. I guess sometimes possibilities can be a bit too endless.
