review 1: great book, very interesting idea. The biology and sociology seemed researched and well thought out. Some of the cultures were a little extreme, however that is most likely what would happen in isolation like that. Most of the book flowed very nicely too, however i felt the end was a little abrupt. I'm unsure if the thought here was that maybe there would be a sequel and then changed their mind at the last minute and threw in a ending.
review 2: Read at least (2) timesQuite. Funny.I went looking for another Freer book and actually hadn't realized that I'd read this one before. Philosophically it's really interesting. "The Brethren believe that all people have a better nature to appeal to. But I have decided it is not always possible to reach it." - said by How... moreardI think it's really similar to my own philosophy of "Everyone can be saved, but *you* can't save everybody." Maybe they're not ready yet, or maybe I'm just not the right person, but someone or something, somewhere can save them - as a caveat though - I reserve the right to shoot people in the head if they threaten me or mine. less
