Book Review: Toys by James Patterson and Neil McMahon

This is a novel set in the future and that is not exactly my favourite genre but this novel was easy to read. It concerns a society where there are Elites and humans, with the Elites ruling over the humans. It concerns an Elite who discovers he is a human and his changing sides, fighting his family and generally setting wrongs to rights.

Some of the futuristic touches I did not really like but I did see that there were parallels between this novel and the dictators in the world where elites are created and the population is generally kept down by toys. This novel was envigorating as the humans strove to overcome their oppressors, and good overcoming evil.

Not really my cup of tea so only 7/10 for this one.
