Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

This will be a short review. I simply cannot believe that at the time of this review's writing, 56% of the reviewers gave it five stars. I find this to be one of the most gratuitously violent, sadistic, and misogynistic books I have ever had the misfortune to read. I have read all of Ms. Slaughter's books, and although they have been uniformly violent, this one is over the top in so many ways. Worse than that, it is a totally unrealistic and unbelievable plot, with characters whose personalities shift to fit the action. Lastly, the degradation of women as a theme is repulsive.
