***MY HONEST REVIEW OF MERITROPOLIS***
In Meritropolis, the needs of the many outweigh the needs of
the individual. For that reason, the people are given a number value based on
their contribution to society. This number is reassessed weekly, and if it
falls below 50, then that individual will be cast outside the walls surrounding
Meritropolis. And that is somewhere you don’t want to be. No one survives the
extra aggressive hybrid beasts that live in the forest. Every one is too scared
to do anything to change this, except for 17-year-old Charlie. His number is higher than everyone except
for the commander. When he tries to save a weakly 7-year-old girl from being
cast out, the commander takes notices. With this new scrutiny, Charlie will
have to watch his back as he tries to find a way to change the system.
I can see the future coming to this, with one all-powerful
being, and the peoples complacent. I liked the characters created in this
story. Charlie was very likable. The hybrid creatures were different. I never
would have imaged the combinations that were created. There were more mentioned
that never had interaction. I would have liked to have read a few fighting
scenes with them. All in all, I enjoyed the story and look forward to the next
in the series.
