In the bowels of a massive factory, slaves live and work under the gaze of cruel robots called Watchers. Their lives are short and harsh and meaningless. Until the day a door opens where no door should be, and some of the slaves escape into the corridors. Gradually the true nature of the factory is revealed, a truth that might change everything and throw open every door. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

With that concept this book has potential to be powerful in the way of many dystopian novels, or terrible and dark. In fact this one is just tedious. It took me a very long time to finish it, not at all helped by the narration which I added because it was cheap, but was truly awful. The stuttering narration with goofy sounding characters and very strange stress and timing throughout, was most off putting and I had to abandon it and red the book the old fashioned way.
There are no great surprises in this book, although once I had abandoned the narration things improved a little. In terms of the over-arching theme, this book is perhaps not unlike "This Time of Darkness" but not a patch on that book. ( )
