I thought this book was okay. It took me a long time to get into it. The characters were the best part - it took me a while to get into the plot and this future world wasn't all that interesting. I didn't really like the ending. If somebody liked his other books, I wouldn't discourage them from reading it, but I'd definitely steer people to Artemis Fowl first.

Its often hard to find a good book and i saw the front of this and decided to get it it was one of the best books i ever read. Even though i dont really like sci-fi I loved it. I couldnt put it down!

This book is a great book for anyone who thinks about the future and what it will it be like? This book is one of the best books I have every read! It made me think and some times it's hard to find a book that makes you question the way things are done, and if the future really will be that bad. all in all it was a great book with a little bit of everything.

Colfer is possibly one of my favorite authors, as well as myself and Rowling. I read this book as soon as I saw the author. I had recently finished the Artemis Fowl series, and really enjoyed them. I soon found out that this book is very different. It is possible one of the best books i have EVER read!!! I think if you liked the Fowl books, this book is definantly for you. It is set in the distant future, and Colfer definantly has creative visions of what it is like there. If you are stuck on your computer, or just need a good read, come down and purchase this one, it is the building block for books to come!
