Welcome to Litsy!

Not a bad read. Geared toward the younger end of the YA spectrum. The story is fairly interesting and the characters are well developed. The only thing stoping me from throwing up the horns for the rating is some of the over-explanation that the author frequently goes into. However that is pretty much my only complaint. If you decide to read this though please know that it is the first of a trilogy and does not work as a stand alone title.

Great trilogy about perseverance. Quite a political book. Good one for kids to read to understand politics, classes, and how difficult it can be to play out the Hero's journey. Patrick Carman is a fantastic author to read about strong characters who go against societal norms to evoke change!
