In a dystopian near-future of the American Surveillance State, we
follow the story of Marcus, who only a couple of years before, was caught in a
scandal of torture, unlawful imprisonment, and government secrets. He finds
himself once more in the center of a conspiracy centered around the friends he
keeps and the secrets he has access to.
Homeland is a somewhat sequel to Little Brother, Cory's
first book in the series that centers around privacy, civil liberties, and
technology. I recommend this book to any young adult or parent
who wants his child to be aware of the world in which he is being brought
up in. It's cliché to say that this book and books like it are important, but
hey it's important. The modern answer to 1984, by an
author that makes his characters easy to identify with and the reading fun,
fast, and freeing!
