The Family Tree

Animal Farm - George Orwell
White - Ted Dekker
The Visitor - Sheri Tepper


I grew to like this novel the more I read it. The future setting of The Family Tree seemed to be a basic variation of other fantasy worlds; I found Grass' setting (planet) to be more interesting and was surprised at how much more I enjoyed Grass because of that. Also, I appreciated the message of The Family Tree, but it got to be pretty preachy when they started talking about eating human babies and how it was no big deal. Overall, this book was interesting and pretty fun to read.

Question: I may have just missed the explanation, so I apologize if this was answered... how were the animals able to know of Inglitch, etc., but did not think of the humans as being intelligent?
