COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Outstanding submitted by Susan4Pax -prev. sueij- on August 25, 2014, 1:47pm 5 stars for this excellent scifi YA book.

So... my 10 1/2 year old son read this, loved it, and recommended it to me. He's been doing that a little more often lately, and I love when he does. So I read it, because he has good taste in books and because it gives us another point of connection. He was right: this is an excellent book.

The storyline is outstanding, with an excellent mix of information and mystery to drive you through the story and never want to put it down. There was humor throughout, and wonderful imagined technology that would appeal to anyone, but probably *especially* to pre-teen and teen boys. Tension, action, and STILL characters who are real, well-rounded, grow in response to their environment. That's what makes it for me.

Was there anything I didn't like about the book? Well, I really don't believe in children saving the world. But that's the target audience and the genre. I accept it for what it is.

I think I'm going to have to introduce my son to the term "dystopian." Who knew there was dystopian sci fi that he would like this much?
