Brave new world was not the most terrifying society. The concept of it honestly was scary because you were being controlled but the entire time there was no crimes to be had and everyone was happy. Brave New World was in my knowledge of reading the book was a Utopia to the people in the story but from an outside perspective it was not right. I have not read the other book. However i would agree that in the way the story unfolded and we were told of how their Utopia was being ruled over i would say that it was a DYSTOPIA.
