An extremely unique premise and story telling format, but a dark and humorless reality to have to face. A Jurassic Park success story, but still featuring ethical chasms of "science made it possible, but should science have done it in the first place?"
It was a though read at times as an elephant lover, as an animal lover. But Damira's vengeance with her herd was as good an ending as one could hope for, given the circumstances.
