Summary

This third book in a major series by a best-selling science fiction author, Printz Award winner, and National Book Award finalist is the gripping story of the most provocative character from his acclaimed novels Ship Breaker and The Drowned Cities.

Tool, a half man/half beast designed for combat, is capable of so much more than his creators had ever dreamed. He has gone rogue from his pack of bioengineered "augments" and emerged a victorious leader of a pack of human soldier boys. But he is hunted relentlessly by someone determined to destroy him, who knows an alarming secret: Tool has found the way to resist his genetically ingrained impulses of submission and loyalty toward his masters.... The time is coming when Tool will embark on an all-out war against those who have enslaved him.

From one of science fiction's undisputed masters comes a riveting audiobook that pulls no punches.

Critic reviews

"Suzanne Collins may have put dystopian literature on the YA map with The Hunger Games...but Bacigalupi is one of the genre's masters, employing inventively terrifying details in equally imaginative story lines." ( Los Angeles Times)

What a great story.

Taking great care of the character he created Paolo does him proud by telling his story to the end. Great action and people. Don't worry Paolo we still get the politics as well. The world is real in its potential so we just have to keep telling stories like this one to avoid it.

As good as the last one

Same quality story as the last book. Wraps up nicely at the end. But weird having a different narrator but I mostly didn’t notice after the first hour
