Call it Freedom by Miguel de Luis

Friendship, courage and adventure 

It is the story of a nearby future, not too dark but neither too bright. 

A world ravaged by economic failure and a drastic solution, slavery. 

Follow the trials of Jonathan, a 12 years old, a bright student and a slave of a Scientific Institution . . . 

 . . . which works to upgrade the intelligence of dolphins.

And his unlikely friend Ruben, who attends the same public school, a fat, not so popular boy . . . 

 . . . but a free boy, living with his easy going uncles.

It is a story of friendship, courage, and aventure on land and sea

 . . . and a solar powered Zeppelin.

Eh

I found it difficult to read "Call it Freedom."  The grammar and sentence structure could use some work.  It’s hard to fault the author too much for that because his native tongue is not English. 

The plot is the most interesting thing about the story.  In a nutshell, Slavery is legalized.  It has potential, I think, but I had a difficult time getting into the story.  I think there could be more characterization—it didn’t really feel as if each character had his own voice.

The chapters are short, which is nice.  The web site is nice and easy to use over all.
