“My mind is blown!”

<div id=”brxe-3a1cbc” class=”brxe-text”><p>“Isn’t it just so great when you find one of those books that completely drags you in, makes you fall in love with the characters, and demands that you sit on the edge of your seat for every intense, nail-biting moment of it? This is one of those books for me. And I must issue a serious content warning: this book explores some very divisive ideas. Proceed with caution (or not at all) if you are particularly sensitive to matters concerning politics and religion. This book is like the dystopian Lord of the Rings, with its richly developed culture and economics. The world-building is so fully fleshed out and spine-tinglingly terrifying I got the chills so many times toward the end of this book. It completely blew my mind. It managed to surpass my high expectations AND be nothing at all like I expected. I can’t imagine how challenging it would be to tackle the concepts and forewarning involved in writing a novel as telling as this in our current economical/political climate. With an unapologetically realistic delivery packed with emotion, Shadows of Giants is a crucially important portrayal of the current political economic landscape and gives hope for the future with nuggets of gold advice peppered throughout for us to find and apply to our daily lives. I have no doubt that this book will be met with resistance by some (possibly many) and slapped with a “controversial” label, but if you’ve ever wondered what our futures holds if we keep moving down this highway to mediocrity and less as a society, then I feel like this is an unflinchingly honest place to start.”</p>
