I was really looking forward to read this book. The cover of the book is absolutely stunning. His is a great dystopian story about war and a strong bond between sisters that is almost destroyed. You immediately feel the tight kinship between the sisters at the beginning of the story but the story starts to unravel how that relationship came to be. If you really enjoy sci-fi type reads this is a great one to read. I was a little worried at first because I honestly didn't know anything about the Nigerian War that occurred in1967 but the author gives a great brief history review in the "Authors Note". I would highly recommend reading the note before you dive in. A very descriptive telling of war and technology. Beautifully written and very descriptive.
