In a refreshing spin on YA dystopian fiction, Kat Ross creates a world
in which hypercanes (unprecedented hurricanes of extreme size and power)
have forced survivors into underground cities. Jansin is a 16 year old
who has been raised underground and trained at a special military
school. Her parents take her on a trip to the surface, which only a
select few get to experience. But their group is attacked by pirates,
who take Jansin captive.
If she can keep her wits about her,
maybe she can learn to survive in this strange new world above ground.
But she might also come to find that everything she ever thought was
true was wrong! Jansin is a brave and intelligent heroine who must
figure out where she stands and who and what she is willing to fight
for.
I found the novel's plot line fascinating, and thought it
was well written. Suspense moved the story along quickly. The characters
and the dilemmas they faced were well handled and easy to relate to.
This is a book I would read again.
I received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
