This review took me longer to write because of the things happening in my life in the last couple months, but don't let that make you think that I didn't completely love the story. It was an amazing read. Below is my review and below that I will add a link for anyone who thinks they would like to read it. If you like a thrilling, dystopian ride, then FERTS is a must read!
Wow! I don't
generally read dystopia novels, but this one's plot line intrigued
me, and so I decided to try it out. It was a very good read.
Beth259201 (just 201 for most of the story) was an intelligent woman
stuck in a horrible situation. The story is set where women are
raised and taken to be slaves of men's base needs, whether sexual or
fighting. Women are taught that the whole reason for their existence
is to let a man do whatever he wants to her. Her whole schooling is
to be pretty and seductive, if she is not good at that, then she is
trained to be a fighter, and if she is not good at that she becomes
the work horse for the society. That is a woman's existence. No
complaining, no dignity, no love.
The society is
the brain child of Pinnacle Officer Wilcox who is a deranged
'scientist' and misfit to normal society. He developed FERTS to ease
his conscious of the horrible things he did in the past.
201 has
instincts that tell her there is something wrong, and intelligence to
realize she had better keep quiet. As the story goes on, she
understands more and more. She has only one allie, and strange
dreams to give her some guidance. She knows she has to do something
about this, that she just cannot live this way. She 'sees' what she
is to do, and it is an amazing thrilling journey as you walk with her
through the bad and the triumphant!
I am very glad
I read FERTS. It was well written and completely thought out story
that kept me going until the last word!
Thank you,
Grace Hudson, for an awesome story. My hope, with how it ended, is
that there is a sequel! I would love to see what happens next.
