I loved Avendui 5ive, the prequel, and this book is a fantastic start to Tyler's new world in this series. A world in which slavery, torture of those different than themselves, poverty, exclusion of abnormal and disfigured beings, a strict unquestioning religion, lying to the people, and open hatred of other species are commonplace.
The comparisons between then and now, and then and the rise of the Nazis is amazing. The underlying themes too, eg climate change, and not speaking up and questioning things, are stark warnings for us today.
This is a REALLY well written book. The characters are very well fleshed out and believable. The main females are strong and do what needs to be done. There are a lot of characters, but it doesn't feel like it. Once you start this book, you are there, you are pulled in and kept there. There is no outside of this world.
Tyler's writing flows effortlessly, and the story is excellent. This is a flawless piece of work and I look forward to enjoying more.

Could this be our future?
Reviewed in Canada on 7 February 2017Verified Purchase
I just finished this book, and am diving head first into all P.K. Tylers works. The way she has created a world that makes you actually believe "this could be our future" and gives you characters that you want to know more about is absolutely amazing. I can't wait to delve further into her worlds!!

Phenomenal, epic science fiction with real depth
Reviewed in the United States on 29 November 2016Verified Purchase
I was very impressed by this novel. Its scope is really epic with different chapters telling the story from the third person perspective of about 5 different characters of multiple species on different parts of Earth, and we meet many more characters in this dystopic future world. As the novel stats, the Mezna aliens have been ruling Earth and have pulled the wool over most humans' eyes telling them that they are benevolent goddesses. Now people from disparate backgrounds are figuring out what is going on and how to save the peoples conquered by the Mezna.
This novel is suitable for both teens and adults. In fact, several of the principle characters are in their upper teens, but this book is so much higher quality science fiction then the ridiculous but popular drivel that is called teen sci-fi nowadays. This future world is complex with multiple cultures. I love how PK Tyler has written the humans on the reservations talking in a different dialect from the hybrids and the Sabaal character. The author deftly introduces us to each person and their situation and slowly gives us a bigger picture of what is happening in this polluted future earth.
This wonderful epic book really deserves to be a bestseller, and I really hope that a lot of teens read it. I am in my thirties and I am very picky about sci-fi books, mainly gravitating to the classic like Asimov, Heinlein, and Phillip K. Dick. "The Jakkattu Vector" has a lot of depth, so it may become a new classic. There are themes of identity, linguistics, prejudice, slavery, global warming, and stagnating culture. I recommend it for all sci-fi fans. Also, the characters are each unique and memorable. Occasionally a little bit of prose does not flow well, but that is not very common in the book.

Sci-Fi with social issues
Reviewed in the United States on 29 November 2016Verified Purchase
This is a book you will want to sit down with so you can give it your undivided attention. I’m not saying that in a bad way, it’s just that it’s not fluff. You will miss a great deal if you are reading and dividing your attention watching a TV show, or cooking dinner or helping kids with homework.
I’m old enough that I remember how the old Star Trek episodes also address serious social issues such as prejudice, war, the environment, feminism and others. If you are a younger sci-fi fan you may have watched these as re-runs and not realized how ground breaking they were for their time when they were prime time episodes.
This book is like that. Sure, there are the typical sci fi elements such as aliens, genetics and scientific experimentation. If you like a good adventure, you will find that here. There’s also a good deal of thriller aspects to the book. There is a good solid plot to keep you entertained while your mind considers the bigger issues and themes.
There are two matters that may affect your enjoyment of this work. It is part of a larger story, so there is a bit of a cliffhanger. There is also a good deal of violence by way of torture scenes and some non-consensual acts. These things don’t bother some readers, but some have strong preferences about these factors and their satisfaction with a book.

An incredible journey that will leave you searching for more A 10 for sure
Reviewed in the United States on 1 February 2017Verified Purchase
The author has incredible writing skill. The story works it magic slowly and suddenly slams into you and leaves you breathless. Worth every minute of time spent reading this one. You hope to get to the end to find out what happens and then when you get there you're sad because it over. The next book in the series, The Jakkattu Insurrection, will be on your list as well as mine.
