Review: Dystopian World Struggling To Its Feet
Rating: 4 out of 5
Date: 04 16, 2013
This is a vividly imagined reboot of society.  Hurled back to the hunter-gatherer phase of history, people can only stare uncomprehendingly at books.  They have no medicine, no education, no future that's an improvement on the present.  The reader is placed in this desolate landscape with a young girl whose dreams are impossible.  She dreams of horses, of riding, like flying on the wind.  Benson has created a colorful world populated with kind and patient characters and offers her audience a truly unique experience.
