The dawning of a new order casts a shadow across a whole nation. GRO, the government's Great Reorganization Operation, is turning American society upside down as it seizes teenagers and throws them into compounds across the country. Behind the speeches and programs, a darkness stirs. Reed can feel it. Taken from his home and dropped into the compound of “The Hill” in central Virginia, he can't escape the feeling that evil hangs over him night and day, watching his every move. Something is preying upon the teenagers of the Hill. An entire city lies paralyzed under the iron fist of a shadowy government agency and its cruel police force. Spies lurk among the crowds of frightened teens, ready to pounce at the first sign of dissidence. Fear keeps a choking hold on every soul--almost.

Dystopian Christian novel
Revisado: 07-05-19
By the title, I was expecting the story to be about a world with no electricity, but it wasn’t about that. It reminded me of the Agenda 21 novel by Glenn Beck, but I liked that one better because it was more applicable to real life, more likely to really happen.
Characters in this book were flat. Elijah was predictably a Jesus-like character. Perfect even in his appearance, despite the Bible saying Jesus was nothing special in that department. The Christian characters were all pure good and free of judgment, and the non-believers were all shallow hedonists. Take one look at the Internet and you’ll see that the reality is most Christians are full of judgment and just hypocrites, the very people Jesus preached against. Only in fiction are Christians so good!
There is an obvious message of “The world is in decline because of the decline of Christianity. This would’ve never happened if Christians were in charge. Christians are being persecuted by evil people being controlled by Satan.”

Hi, I'm Tish Mellon, a transgender woman in her 20s and author of this audiobook. My publisher calls the book a transgender memoir, but I'm too young to be writing biographies and memoirs. I'd rather think of it as a suspenseful "coming of age" book, a battle of the sexes, a chess game. To me, it's not a sleepy memoir; it's a fast-paced audio.

It’s concerning that this was about a man who was basically grooming a young boy to dress and act like a girl . . . To train him to be a prostitute. The man brainwashes the boy to like it. And from what it sounds like, the boy does end up liking it. The boy was not transgender before meeting this man. The boy had no interest in being a female. He only starts to like it after being brainwashed by the man. I appreciate the honesty of the memoir, but I would have preferred an accompanied message implying “this is wrong” or “don’t let what happened to me happen to you.” It reads like audio porn for pedophiles. And LGBTs and their supporters are supposed to celebrate stories like this? Stories that encourage sexually exploiting and confusing kids? Not good.
