Robin
Schiller is thirteen when he and his parents go underground in a hermetically
sealed tiny bunker to avoid the chemical bomb set off in Times
Square . Told it would be a temporary thing until order topside is
restored, he is fourteen when all contact with the outside world stops. Finding
another boy his age in one of the compartments of his unit of the underground
Robin whispers conversations with him daily until everyone in the unit decides
they should all meet. Robin’s world is turned upside down yet again, but it’s
not the last time that will happen.
My
thirteen-yr-old son is a big fan of the Razorland books, so I bought this
prequel more for him than for me, but then decided to read it myself. This is a
very interesting story even if it is bleak beyond measure. While every change
sucks, there is still hope and when Robin meets Austin
he decides he can survive anything as long as he has Austin at his side. I had a mild curiosity to
read the series before, but now I really must see how the future that appeared
so bleak in Foundation really turns
out.
I haven't read this series, but it sounds like a great prequel! Thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI'm insanely curious as to how the future looks in this series. My son loves it, so I need to fit it in...somehow. lol You're welcome! Thanks for visiting. :)
DeleteI was looking at the series list for my son and found it. Now, just need to find time to read the other books. lol
ReplyDeleteOne more series I need to read, I'll never see the end of it... :)
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my world. LOL You are an equally bad infuence on me. :D
DeleteI've been debating this series as I love her Sirantha Jax series. Maybe I'll take it for a test drive with this prequel.
ReplyDeleteI had the Jax books from the library, but, of course, had no time to read them. It is nice knowing the books are there when I'm ready though. :)
