Kestrel has ended up in a
labor camp where they steal your memories and make you crave drugs to dull the
pain. Arin is trying to mount a defense
against his enemies, and although he has convinced himself that he no longer
cares for Kestrel, he thinks about her often.
As Kestrel tries to hold onto who she is, Arin comes to realize all that
Kestrel has sacrificed for him, but will it be too late?
Oh my, I love this series. I love the characters and the setting, I love
the believable story line and the covers are amazing. All that said, they are hard to recommend to
young adults because there is on page sex--it’s not overly descriptive, but it
is there. Also the violence is gruesome
and gory-mostly it is war violence but the disgusting descriptions make my
stomach turn.
