I found it an interesting road for the author to take and I liked it.Īs for this future world that I mentioned. As she points out herself, social services are constantly on the back of poor families no matter how much the parents may appear to care for their kids, but one look at those fancy gates and they convince themselves that nothing can go wrong in the happy bubble of the rich and powerful. she is an example of how appearances can be deceiving. I liked this new development after the first novel was set amongst the poorest citizens of Britain you see, Sarah is from a wealthy family and lives in a huge house with those big iron gates out front.
I at first feared that Sarah would be the less interesting half that you sometimes get in books with more than one point of view, but she quickly became a central and important figure to the plot, who's horrific background only added to my concern for her as a reader. No, the characters in this were at least as interesting as Jem and Spider and this time we are introduced to a second perspective alongside Adam's of a new character called Sarah.
This book had everything I loved about the first novel but with a futuristic dystopian setting.īut don't worry, the author hasn't abandoned the close relationship with the characters in favour of high-action sci-fi. I thought this was a great sequel to Numbers and I have no idea why some of the reviews said it was set at a slower pace, I'd say the opposite if anything.
