Reviews-
angelay - I really love this final book to the series! Although the ending was a bit anticlimactic and disappointed me a little, I was still heartbroken by how one of the main characters had amnesia and forgot practically everything. I seriously couldn't stop reading this book, it was packed with action and romance and there's a new event or problem happening every time you turn the page. It's full of plot twists and so much action. I really didn't like how June and Day thought they weren't good enough for each other, it was so frustrating for me as they were perfect together. I was a bit disappointed by the ending because June and Day had to start all over again (their relationship) and I really wanted to read about what happened next between them. I really recommend this series, 100%!!!!!
Starred review from October 10, 2011 Lu’s debut is a stunner. Weaving the strands of SF dystopia, police procedural, and coming-of-age—with touches of superhero and wild frontier traditions—she fashions a narrative in which the action is kinetic and the emotional development is beautifully paced. June, a prodigy from the elite class of the disintegrating Republic, is being groomed for a military career when her brother, a captain, is murdered. June is quickly drafted into the team tracking his accused killer, a spectral and maddeningly persistent outlaw known as Day. June’s life has been shaped by intellect, and to be driven by an emotion as ungovernable as grief makes her vulnerable in painful, dangerous ways. Day has known grief all of his life, but is no more immune to it than June is. The chase unfolds against a plague-infested Los Angeles of Gotham-like grit that Lu conjures with every nuance of smell, sound, and sight. First in a series, this story is utterly satisfying in its own right and raises hopes high for the sequels to come. Ages 12–up.
