I have finished this book, a book about "a fearsome THREAT from the powerful secret network that rules the world"...
This book is full of irony. The main character has a special power that is genetically his due to being a member of a population who has throughout history spent their time fighting a group of evil librarianswho use try to "control the information in [our] country" (119). Their strategy is to bribe, threaten, and brainwash. When that doesn't work, they carefully mislead. This is possible because "People go along with what they are told. Even intelligent people believe what they read and hear..." (119).
This was a cute story, but sometimes hard to read/follow. It is the beginning of yet another triology so don't expect a clean ending. I do like the honesty and candidness of the narrator. He is very self-aware and is open to change/improvement, something we all can strive more to do. :)
