This book is misrepresented as simply science fiction. It is in actual fact pornographic, sci fi. Explicit sexual scenes including homosexual ones, and no warning given.
Wish you explained "quaker"

A good book that got a bit to religious for my taste at points, i guess it was needed to put things in perspective. Parts of it shook me and i was baffled by the authors guts to dive into some subjects. I take away half a star to 4 1\2 only because of the bleak and a bit boring ending to an otherwise daring and exiting story. The reading leave nothing to want, that i give 5 stars.

I had to make a comment. I felt awkward with this book most of the time, but I got over that and listened to the end. You narrate wonderfully. I think it's the main reason I kept going. And I'll admit the story was very creative. :)

A Sci-Fi adventure that keeps a solid pace full of well developed characters. My only complaint is the heavy reliance on religion. By the end of the story the author nearly devolves into a sermon and as an atheist the constant preaching began to grow wearisome.
