| I know full well that growing up is hard to do, and suffering is a vital component of the human condition and sees no racial or social construct, but this is the story of a privileged white kid who burns it all down — quite literally — and not only still has a shot at Harvard, but also has an alternate career path as an influencer fall smack into his lap | Thanks to the publisher Random House UK, Cornerstone and NetGalley for a copy of this book in return for an unbiased review |

So will his inevitable utterance of two keywords from the movie title resonate with us, or bang the gong of phony tones? A man with a plan out to avenge his family.
7| Would we be so sanguine then? Like no one really thought Trump would get elected | Emotive, unsettling and very nicely pitched storytelling from John Niven — I really enjoyed this |
|---|---|
| This is a dystopian thriller of epic proportions | I recommend this book to those who enjoy reading futuristic dystopian fiction books with political satire |
| The book is set a few years in the future | Niven handles the threads of the story with maturity and great empathy, the madcap Niven of old sometimes slips into the light but its a more controlled, nuanced version of his former self |
|---|---|
| Terrifying, horrific, shocking and incredibly entertaining | If ever a book like this about the politicians in Malaysia see the light of day, that will resurrects the sedition charge to the author and the publisher |
