This book is fast-paced, addicting, and left me wanting more. Harris has created a dystopian landscape, which we can all envision as this novel is set in the not-so-distant future, and the imagery is *chef's kiss*.
Every character has several layers of complexity in their emotions, interactions, and back story. It's clear that Harris has spent a lot of time developing them. Because each character has so much depth to them, the story doesn't stop moving and is very fast-paced. I had a hard time putting this book down each evening when I was reading.
There are some loose ends that are appropriately placed. I would love to see some sequels or spin-offs and will certainly be interested if they come out.
