Earth and Earthlings (The Quick and Brutal Guide)

Earth and Earthlings by Moses Guru
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I have not connection to Moses Guru.

The truth. This book is truly different to any other book I have read. Moses Guru is as enigmatic and intelligent a writer as the character in the book. The book is a blend of scientific (neurological, psychological, and philosophical) theories, mixed with hard truths, and subjects usually hidden away from. The "Brutal" part of the title of the book refers to the honest of the characters.

On the surface the plot of the book is pretty simple. A lone gun woman walks into a bank, holding it up. Releasing most of the staff, allowing herself a manageable number of hostages. However what does the woman really want? Now held at gun point, these people from different walks\class of life and society, people who would never bother to even speak to each other in the outside world, are held at gun point, and force to discuss and discover theories of life and hard truths. However who is in control? How does the calm and intellectual hobo Moses fit into this scene?

There are many unanswered questions in this book, more then enough for sequel. the book is fast paced, and though they is not much action, it more them makes up for this in heavy discussions. Argued from both sides of the arguments. Some of the most interesting conversations I have ever read. I would love to see more.
