4.5 starsI really didn't know what to expect going into this one, but after finishing it, my mind is blown. Atwood does a tremendous job of making this book both a prequel and a sequel to Oryx and Crake.This one follows the lives of Toby, Ren, and Amanda. How different all their lives were before th...
I liked this book a lot more than the first one, and to be honest I liked the first one a lot more once I had the perspective of this book. I really enjoyed the different points of view of Toby and Ren. It was a little bit confusing at first, trying to figure out the timeline and characters, but it ...

This was hard work and nowhere near as good as it's predecessor. The first 250-300 pages are a chore, but after that we finally get a goods solid connection to Oryx and Crake and everything steps up a notch. I had read that it was the poorest of the trilogy, and as I'm now about to start book 3,the ...
I really liked The Year of the Flood, but it is a bit different from Oryx and Crake.There is similar forward and backward progression in this book, as there was in Oryx and Crake, but it's less pronounced, and less edge-gripping. That's simply from the fact that in by reading Oryx and Crake, much of...
I have no idea whether I liked this book or not. Crazy. Cults. Pan epidemics. Newly bio-engineered humans. Dystopian society. Too much going on. Maybe I needed to have reread Oryx & Crake. Will probably end up reading the last of the trilogy.

Margaret Atwood, you genious Canadian oldtimer. 'The Year of the Flood' is the second instalment in the so-called 'MaddAddam' trilogy.

A sect living on a rooftop garden. Violence and decadence on the streets. Gene spliced animals and plants. This is the grim future in Margaret Atwood’s “The Year of the Flood”. The book jumps backwards and forwards in time, some chapters cover the years leading up to ‘The Dry Flood’ while others fol...
