Point of View

• The first person is the point of view of the book. First person you will be able to see Starkey's feelings and thoughts. If the author chosen 3nd person limited, you will not see Starkey’s thoughts and feelings.

Symbolism

• There was no symbolism but if there was. It would mess up the book. He would have to rewrite the book to make it sound good.

Recommendation

• If you like reading science fiction. You will love this book. The chapters are only on one character then the next chapter is a other character. His writing is so great were you don’t have to read the first book. That’s why I recommend this book and it is worth it to reading this.
