The Subterrene War

review 1: Disturbingly captivating. Despite having not read the first of the series, I did not feel like I was missing anything or that any points were laboured over to catch me up. I'm not sure if I will go back and read the first one. This one was quite intense and raised some interesting ideas about what it means to a person to kill for a job, and of course questions around the ideas of breeding or bioengineering for purpose.
review 2: I loved this second book in the series even more than the first. We get to see the war and the aftermath of wars through the eyes of a genetically engineered super soldier who seeks her freedom. Trading one form of slavery for another and another, Catherine eventually finds that her freedom is not what she thought it would be, having ... moretruly had it all along, and that she has purpose beyond even what her creators could even imagine with their rigid science. less
