kristi_starr35 's review for:
The Drowned Cities
by Paolo Bacigalupi
Darker than SHIP BREAKER. I wish there had been a context provided in relation to SB (or I missed it). Does this follow SB or precede it? Or maybe I need to reread SHIP BREAKER. Regardless, it's a story about loyalty, second chances, and - though it often doesn't seem that way - hope. Wish it also provided a bit more history/backstory; just curious when the Accelerated Age came to an end and China switched roles with the US. An interesting juxtaposition. And though a dark book, a glimmer at the very end. A good read.
