WOW. I started this Saturday morning and finished Sunday night and it felt like years passed by. It's rare for both the writing and plot to be so good that I'm wholly swept up in the pace and the events. I'm stunned by this and wondering if it didn't win the National Book Award what did?

Also, I never venture into the realm of sci-fi/fantasy but this author walked the line between literary fiction and dystopian sci-fi with a firm grip on writing prowess. Highly recommend.
