Why read it?
1 author picked Q as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
What happens when you take the meritocracy to extremes and you can only access the best of food and housing etc when your Q is the highest? Dalcher creates an interesting future world, damning of social engineering and genetic manipulation, and reminds us that it was less than a hundred years ago that certain war-hungry fellas (and a few women) salivated over thoughts of a perfect Aryan race.

From Caraline's list on set in a post apocalyptic future.
