Move over Hunger Games and Divergent, there is a new kid on the block and it promises to keep the interest level at an all time high.Time is spent developing the early storyline so you really know what life in the Dark Zone is like. Then you find out about The Carnival - a game provided by the Frontier ( the area with heat and electricity separated from the DZ by a huge wall) where DZ people are given a chance to win electricity for their families by winning the hand of one of four candidates in marriage.But things aren't really as they seem in the Frontier and Star and Phoenix find themselves facing more danger than they have ever faced before. Can their love endure circumstances that might make them choose to marry someone else and more importantly will they be able to face the coming darkness?This book was terrific. I loved every minute of it and actually groaned when the end finally came. It was stimulating and exciting and had a great storyline. I would definitely recommend it to YA and NA readers as well as anyone who is just looking for a really good book to read. I even recommended it to my 70+ year old father.* I received a copy of this book in return for my honest and frank review *
