"I loved this story! All aspects of it were interesting...the "what-if the Axis Powers won," the skin-shifting, the flashbacks/background, and the race itself. It could have been a mess but Graudin wove everything together beautifully. <br/><br/>Half of me wishes this book was a standalone and half of me is very excited for the next book. I hope that the story and characters can be maintained and that the next book is just as awesome. It's definitely worth reading!"
"Just finsh it and oh my goddesses. It was incredible. The writing just pulled you in like claws, the words had weight to them. Not many books can make me feel anxiety or on edge. But this book did it again and again. Yael was so well written, that reading her internal struggle, her wanting, but that never pulling her away from her main goal? I guess you need to read it! 10 out of 10! "
"This book is a thriller book, it's about an experimental survivor whose task is to try take out the infamous leader the world knew him as Hitler, and, if you like this book a lot/this book is yours then there's a few books as such as blood by blood and iron by iron (if I recall correctly, the iron by iron is the between book of wolf by wolf and blood by blood) ; Yael is a strong woman protagonist character. :D"
