Actually should be a five star review for the quality of writing and for the chills it delivers, and the quality of analysis. The last chapter cost it a star — basically, it’s “Well, those minorities who enjoy all this excess power that is structurally theirs because of big defects in our system might agree to give that up one day.” It was like reading a gripping book about climate change and then having a chapter at the end that says “Don’t despair, fossil fuel interests and the wealthy folks who cause the most emissions will come around one day for sure!”
