Quote from: andoireabu on January 25, 2024, 06:02:57 PMThe Year of the Locust by Terry Hayes is a good read. Same author wrote I Am Pilgrim which is one of the few books I've ever read more than once.
Am I right in saying there is a sci-fi element to it? I like sci-fi and like I Am Pilgrim a lot but I have my reservations about this one.

Yeah but so badly done. Was a normal run of mill book then last section went of on a massive tangent. I'm still not sure if I like the book. Just felt the sci fi bit was like an add on at end and not consistent with rest of story.
Aye that's in line with a review I read. Will pass.
It was a bit of a random turn right enough that I wasn't expecting but I still enjoyed it. Not as much as Pilgrim though
