It's awesome.

I have the audiobook. I have listened to it numerous times. Great story.

But the city wasn't on fire was it? Don't you think the city would be on fire?

And what about water? I suppose blind people can turn on a tap, but not ape people.
Take a look outside at your city. Even when it rains, the water goes down the storm drains.
In a couple hours, the streets are dry, and there is no water.

Inside, anyone trapped inside would have no water unless they drank out of the toilet.
Or broke a bottle or something but would an ape be able to do that and still get a drink?

In winter, 3 hours without shelter.
Any time of year, 3 days without water.
3 weeks without food.
And you die. On average.
So, within 3 days, almost all the apes will be incapacitated from lack of water unless there is a river near your city or lake. Indoors, within 5 days, they will be in the fetal position. Dying of thirst.

I think you underestimate apes. They have thumbs like us. They can open doors. They can open bottles. Go to your zoo and look how they look at your face and how they eat their banana. They understand more than you and many people think. They are very intelligent and potential.

If a Chimpanzee is thirsty and he has a bottle and he sees water inside he will find 50 ways to open it.
