I was drawn into the story right from the beginning. This pieceof speculative fiction is nothing like anything I’ve read before. It facesreality head-on while also pursuing themes that are outlandish in the realm ofreality. Yes, there are some explicit references to sexuality and abuse but theauthor makes it clear that it isn’t a book for children. In a world obsessedwith genres like BDSM, I don’t find any reason why this book should becritiqued on basis of its portrayal of abuse and violence. This book has a lotof merit. In the beginning, it is very serious. As it progresses, it becomessomewhat satirical. It hammers home some truths which society tries to hidebehind overt niceties. It makes the reader reflect, it makes the reader think overtheir own perception of the society. DotCom’s entry into the book gives it anew dimension. Some humor too seeps into the story because of DotCom’s presenceand the ventures attempted by him and Lacy. The narrative technique isbrilliant and it certainly helps the reader in getting involved. I was amazedwhen the story ended—Amazed at the realistic descriptions of situations that achild might find herself in; amazed by how the author has aptly mingled tragedywith humor. I was very satisfied with the entire novel and I’m definitely goingto give it five stars. I would recommend it to people who sympathize with thecauses of children who suffer silently in some corner. I would also recommendit to readers of science fiction who expect more in a book than pages full offantastical ideas.
