but of course even then I didn't agree with that many of the negative users reviews because at least half of them were complaining about excessive wokeness or HBO libtards or something.
The amount of substance and style that feels like it was ripped right out of Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam trilogy is pretty remarkable.

At least a dozen times I said to myself that this sure reminds me of Oryx & Crake and The Year of the Flood, minus the absurd satire.
