It was my debut with mister Ray Bradbury and I can say I've now "seen what all the fuss is about". Very light reading despite the loaded story. I recommend this reading for those who liked 1984 and/or The Admirable New World. Further more, I'd recommend it to kids who haven't yet read those two books I've just mentioned, for its apparent lightness in dealing with such heavy matters will for sure spread the seed of curiosity in the minds of the younglings. :)
