Wow, this was genius! So clever and so unsettling! (view spoiler)[The ending has my imagination running wild. It ends in an Adam and Eve note. Tanner and Morena are the first and only humans in Primordius. I'd like to believe the builders truly thought of everything and there are more T-Bins that would arrive in Primordius years down the line. (hide spoiler)]

I’ve read most of the Guys Read series and Neal Shusterman’s books. This story is epically great. Yes it is gross. Yes it is nerdy. However, that is exactly what it is was trying to be and it accomplished it profoundly. Short and sweet, this story will entertain SciFi lovers and is perfect for reluctant readers who want some intense reading without 300 pages in between.

It follows Tanner, an orphan on a space capsule that was designed by the builders to deliver its contents onto Primordius. His parents have died and he farms his plot of land by himself, but with the water shortage, he barely is able to get enough to drink, let alone wash. Because of his status, he isn't welcome in most places. When he figures out the builder's plan, it's nearly too late for everyone. He manages to save Morena, another orphan after her grandfather died. Everyone who trusted the builders got a horrible surprise - but Tanner and Morena were able to wash and hopefully live.

That was a cringe-worthy, belch-inducing, GENIUS short story, the kind I'd expect from the one and only Neal Shusterman.

Looking to populate another planet. Our main protagonist doesn't really think that their mission is what everyone things it is.
