Book Review: Did You Read The News? by Jacob Merwin
“Did You Read The News?” by Jack Merwin is a dystopian novel set on the planetary colony of Nemiza, where societal unrest ravages the once-prosperous society. Antuny, a devoted follower of the aging Dictator Itto, confronts the collapse of everything he idolized, testing his humanity. The book’s mature focus on dystopia outweighs its romantic elements, with pacing concerns and a disappointing conclusion.
