40 is a wild ride into implications of religion, politics, and humanity. I saw many correlations to the present day world. It reminded me of Hunger Games at times. The story itself was fine and entertaining, but I wasn't vested as I thought I should be. There were so many characters that I was constantly confused who people were. The story makes me scared for the future of humanity. Maybe we do need a do over. We may already be on that path.
