Evil Genius by Patricia Rice is a fantastic read. The humor in this book is outstanding! I loved the characters too. Patricia Rice has a new fan after reading just two of her books. Evil Genius is a suspenseful, well written story complete with action and a mystery man. I look forward to reading more from Patricia Rice in the future. Evil Genius is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger.
Ethiopian Ermias Ghermay is thought to have made a fortune from the evil migrant trafficking trade and is wanted for the deaths of hundreds of migrants.
This book is about it.
Insightful and clarifying the facts, it is only 35 pages long in print.
But it doesn't need to be longer.
It says all that needs to be said to wake you up and bring the cruel realities about human trafficking into your daily world.
"Lots of people are fish food now, but no one ever says anything about that."
"We've globalised capital, but not labour."
"Few factors shape a child's life as the one that she can do nothing about - the flag under which she was born."
Maybe there is something we can do about it.
Read the book. Think about it.
We are all humans.
The Flag under which we are born should not define our destiny.
I don't...I'm honestly not even certain why I started the second book immediately after finishing this one. I'm going to blame the fact that when I "closed" this one, it was right there and I didn't have to ponder the rest of my eLibrary to determine what was up next.Don't get me wrong, this book isn't terrible at all, but it certainly wasn't good enough to rush right out and FIND THE SECOND ONE ZOMG!!!No, it was pretty thoroughly meh. Nothing great, nothing terrible, just straight middle of the road. For me, middle of the road is three stars, which is why it's in the middle, yeah?There are a few clever bits, but much like Ford Prefect's* explanations of Gnab Gibs, it takes a long time of stuff that doesn't make a whole lot of sense and causes your mind to wander before you actually get to them.Meh.(but I will still probably finish the other second and read the third because they are right. there.)*Please don't take my reference to the Guide to mean that I am in any way comparing the two. Please.
