What price would you pay to survive?
Arora and Blaze, twin sisters, have been genetically altered to control electricity. They are groomed their entire lives to serve Keane Corp., the company that controls everything in the aftermath of a global catastrophe.

Fun adventure story and reminds me a lot of a video game. Pretty short read in compared to other fantasy books. Would be nice if it didn’t end in a cliff hanger but over all fun read.

Quick read. The plot was straightforward and easy to follow, generally enjoyable. I love a good future-dystopian book, this one had some of those elements but not enough if you’re looking for something like the hunger games or divergent.

This book was amazing. Definitely a page turner. I can’t wait to read book 2! Perfect Dystopian book if that is what you are looking for.
