This is the first book I have had to read by the author Cixin Liu , but he has been on my TBR ( to be read) list for a while. I found this book excellent in the prose of what would happen in a world without adults, there were definite similarities to Lord of the Flies, ( looking at you Piggy), I definitely put on my spectacles * wink* for my reading. This offered a new perspective on a global scale for sure. I loved the inclusion of modern technology and the look at what the future may bring as far as technological advancements, and the grasp of the child psyche more than the modern interpretation. I would most definitely recommend this book to any sci fi fans, dystonia fans, or my high school freshman English teacher Mrs. Mack if your out there pick this one up after Enders game and lord of the flies.
