A review by aoosterwyk
The Drowned Cities by Paolo Bacigalupi

4.0

Throughout the book, amidst all the horror of child soldiers and war propaganda, I saw hints of our current political and environmental situation.
The pointless killing and refusal to create and only destroy at the highest level could be a logical extension into our future.
Bacigalupi continues to highlight themes that need correcting in our world, while creating characters and situations that show humanity at its best and worst.
