The writing starts out terse and uninspired, but the story eventually draws you in. The main character is bland and unlikable. Conversely Rue, the minor secondary character, is fantastically written and brings genuine emotion and life to the story.
Recently read this as part of a book club and was very pleasantly surprised, as I never select reading material from the science fiction genre. Excellent plot, and the characters were well drawn. Looking forward to reading the sequel.
