Written by a first time author, this book features an ethereal future where freedom as we know it does not exist. Through science fiction, he speaks of a war that rages on in everyone of us: the war between Logic and Emotion, thought and feeling. As the story goes on, he asks one question: What does it mean to be human? A must read if you're a science fiction fan or just someone interested in a little philosophy. Its a pretty light read and for a veteran enthusiast, it would be a couple of hours or may be a day or two.
