When I read the back of this book, it kinda reminded me of the anime Deadman Underland, but so much more deadlier and more brutal. As I read the book, in some ways yes it was kinda similar in the aspect of the fighting in the arena and being televised. But in other aspects it was so very, very different. It was a different version of deathrow, but also gave a chance to fight for their freedom.
