I was gifted this novella by Netgalley in return for a honest review.
I really enjoyed the story – the narration style won’t be for everyone but I didn’t find it grating perhaps due to the subject matter. The story itself was well crafted and was paced well. The social commentary inherent in the story was delicately handled and I didn’t see the end coming at all.
Graphic: Death, Gore, Slavery, and Cannibalism
Moderate: Animal death
