Having not taken in any of Ms. Atwood's writing before reading this, I knew very little what to expect with this one. I chose it for it's 50 cent crossword puzzle clues in the title. (The cover really doesn't tell you much of what you'll find inside; for all I knew I was gonna read a book about art history). Atwood has a keen storytelling sense, and develops her characters well. The story is a utopian/dystopian sci-fi wack-job, taking place in the not-so-distant future involving Crake's idea by destroying the world as we know it and creating a new one from scratch. At times the story reads like a sick and twisted fairy tale, but it's one well worth wading through, even if you're (like me) not all that interested in Science Fiction.

my first atwood, and definitely made me want more! positively horrifying book as you get about 2/3 in and start to realize the implications of what she is saying.

Fascinating world, expertly depicted, though I could have done with it ending about a chapter or two earlier than it did. Am intrigued to read the "sequel"....

LOVE Margaret Atwood. One of the better living writers. What a fantastic story, and all pulled together wonderfully in the last 50 pages. Can't wait to read "Year of the Flood"...
