This novel depicts the author’s own struggle for education, and shows how flippant some teenagers are towards the education they are offered. Just as there are educators who feel knowledge is too precious to share with the simple minded youth who will just waste the information. Tommy Tate is seen as a rebel, fighting against the new set of teachers who were employed in his school. He refused to be taught, and had no real guidance at home since his parents traveled for months on end since he was four. To protect him and to further his education it was decided he would be tutored by a Scholar. Through his education he was suppose to receive “Gifts”. But just as today there is a war over great truths and how it should be used, and do we used animals or humans to test these truths. I can see a sequel coming since it ends with Tommy understanding the truth of both sides and knowing he is the only one who has the power to stop the corruption.
