Minnicks uses colorful language to describe most everything about New Jessup but at times I felt it was a bit too wordy. The setup provokes interesting thoughts about the meaning of equality. I listened to this and was surprised that the ending approached so quickly. I'm not sure what I was expecting to happen in the end but it didn't match the rest of the book for me.
