Review: Another great dystopian trilogy
Rating: 5 out of 5
Date: 10 8, 2013
I've become quite addicted to dystopian fiction since Hunger Games and continually search for new material. This trilogy did not disappoint. I'm finding that these stories tend to follow a pattern, a hero and heroine with a mission and an adversity filled journey/chase before the happily ever after(maybe) ending. These books follow that formula, but what makes them stand apart is the plot. This time we are not fighting alien invasion or implantation. But rather American technology gone wild.Yes there are plenty of futuristic inventions but it all stays just slightly above reality now in 2013, making it menacingly possible. Enjoyed the journey and felt Contrition had me on the edge of my seat from start to finish. This author knows how to write-great character development without being too YA. And lots of plot twists and turns to a resolution not just to tie things up. Wondered for many pages what was in Noahs neck! But kept thinking it was just a tracker! My only criticism is I wished there was more meat in the epilogue..glad for the ending but would have liked more details of the clean up of the GAPS in Sol City, Noah and Zoes education and their wedding...but overall, a great reading experience.
