Come and get the book that got starred reviews from Booklist, Library Journal and Publishers Weekly; that was called "a daring and remarkable novel" by the New York Times; and of which the Daily Beast said"The year is young, but The Orphan Master’s Son has an early lead on best novel of 2012." From the publishers description: "An epic novel and a thrilling literary discovery, The Orphan Master's Son follows a young man's journey through the icy waters, dark tunnels, and eerie spy chambers of the world's most mysterious dictatorship, North Korea. Part breathless thriller, part story of innocence lost, part story of romantic love, The Orphan Master's Son is also a riveting portrait of a world heretofore hidden from view: a North Korea rife with hunger, corruption, and casual cruelty but also camaraderie, stolen moments of beauty, and love." Check it out!
