Whilst adventurous in its day and providing the foundation of modern-day science fiction, this latter aspect is far less expanded on than its legacy would have you believe. Instead it offers an insight into complex issues such as; belonging, love, hate, revenge and justice. Posing questions whose answers are open to the interpretation of the reader.
