Echoes Through Distant Glass

This novel envisions a terrifying world of surveillance and profound change, but that’s only the beginning. As you reach the climax, the true horrors of this world are revealed, and it’s worse than anything you expected along the way. And the worst part is, it’s easy to see how we could get there from where we are today .It’s a long, slow-moving book, and that’s not my usual bailiwick, but the vision of a near future gone horribly wrong will reward lovers of dystopia and lovers of world building. Another thing this book delivers is true character driven fiction. What happens, happens not because the plot requires it, but because that’s what that character would do in that situation. The good part of that is if you’re the kind of reader who gets into a character for who they are, and want to read that. The bad part is if you’re a plot-driven reader like me, and don’t see this affecting the plot at all. If you like character driven stories, if you like dystopia, and if you like richly imagined worlds, you should read Echoes Through Distant Glass.
