There were moments when my heart broke for the 'head' as they were called and the way he has written this story sends a shiver down your spine for the fact alone at how realistic it is. He wrote it in such a way that this could really be what would happen in a situation and future like that. It shows how cruel, evil and sadistic human beings really are and what monsters they are capable of adapting and turning into.
This is a novel I will never forget and it will definitely stay with me for a long time.
If you love a good horror, with a Dystopian theme and have a good stomach for disturbing things then look no further, this book is for you!

The writing was engaging and well-paced but fell short when it came to characters that were anyone but Marcos.
Obviously the themes are supposed to be grotesque but oof,
