Tankborn
Review
By Novel Goddess
Tankborn was an incredibly thought-provoking read. . . .
While it is quite clear that the author wanted to explore the caste system, this story could really be a metaphor for any “us vs. them” mentality. . . . be it religion, gay rights, politics, you name it, and there are direct correlations within Tankborn. It also carried a message of hope. . . .
Another thing I appreciated about this book was that the higher caste, “true born”, people were people of color. Actually the whole book is people of color. . . . but I found it interesting that those with the mid-range color were more desirable, or higher status, rather than those at the end of spectrum. . . .
I really enjoyed Tankborn. The author did a beautiful job weaving together a story, then did a spectacular job of destroying everything Kayla believed in. It’s one of those books readers will still be thinking about days after they have finished it. I know I am!
