No one wants to turn 17 years-old... not even the ones that say they aren't scared to, because they're lying. We've all been taught to learn the same To be soldiers. We all learned about different creatures, their history, their weak points and their strong points at school, just to prepare us to face the one thing everyone dreads to face when they turn The Unknown. There's nowhere to hide in the Unknown, and there's nowhere to go. Just you, a dangerous obstacle in front of you, and five pairs of eyes watching to see if you're worth living and have what it takes to be the island's soldier.
This is an absolute must-read for 12-13+. Full of plot-twists, dystopia, and adventure. Loved it! If you're a fan of The Hunger Games, Divergent, or The Maze Runner, or Red Queen, you'll love this. I recommended it to my friends and I'm recommending it to you too. Really an amazing book! Great character development, awesome plot transitions, and over-all a good book, can't wait to read the next one(If there is a next one). I really hope L.A Mango continues to write more books and keep up with continuing to a next book or making a series.
This is one of the best books I've read in a while. I absolutely loved it. The plot follows a girl who turn 17 and has to go into the Unknown.The book implements so many elements of a good plot, such as tension, and many surprise elements, especially in the end. Makes me ache to get the next one in the series. All in all a very good book, so make sure you read it.
