What readers say
“For those who enjoy slowburn, Mulan style “I’ll take their place,” a Hunger Games style regime, and five trials for life or death, this one is for you!”
— Amazon reviewer
“I am usually wary of books authored by men with a female main character because sometimes they don't capture the emotional depth the way I'd like them to...But THIS book is amazing.”
— Amazon reviewer
“This story is amazing. Hunger Games on steroids. This book had it all: lies, secrets, rebellion, danger, bloodshed, love, protectiveness, betrayal, and so much more. I was sucked in as soon as I read the dedication, and the only reason I set it down and didn't finish in one sitting was because I had to work. The descriptions and imagery made it so easy to picture the world and then transport myself into it. I feel like my heart was pounding along with Evanie's the entire time. I definitely recommend.”
