"Empire and Ecolitan" - a short review
Empire and Ecolitan
Why is this book, or should I say these books, cool? I let a friend borrow a couple of them and he had this to say about the main character, "If he wanted to get out of a building he would save a few innocents along the way, but blow up the building and kill everyone chasing him, as he got out."
