"Twenty-four-year-old Natasha Wiley lives in America-Five, a high-tech, underground, utopian settlement where hunger and money do not exist, everyone has a job, and all basic needs are met. But when her mentor and colleague, Jeffrey, selects her to join a special team to venture Outside for the first time, Natasha's allegiances to home, society, and above all to Jeffrey are tested. She is forced to make a choice that may put the people she loves most in grave danger and change the world as she knows it"--Amazon.com.

same old, same old submitted by SurfGrape on June 15, 2014, 5:45pm This one reminded me very much of Wool by Hugh Howey, although Howey did a much better job. Overall, it was too much of the same-old, same-old. You've got to bring fresh things to the genre or it doesn't work.
