Alenna and Liam are safe at Destination Point
in Australia, they have escaped from Alpha Island and are starting to adapt to
life in the remote location. Alenna and
Liam have vowed to return to Alpha Island to save their friends and they try to
gather information and understand the politics outside the Island so they can
return. The UNA, the governing world
power, continues to hunt down any rebels, and finds Destination Point, forcing
Alenna and Liam to move where they uncover more information and secrets that
will lead to a rebellion.
This is the
second book in an entertaining dystopian trilogy. The characters are strong and get things
done, there is a lot of action and the plot moves along quickly with
interesting twists and turns. This is
easy to recommend to kids who enjoyed Maze Runner or Hunger Games.
