Sixteen-year-old Micka never signed up to be a hero. Yet, here she is - at the front lines of humanity's desperate struggle for survival. Alone with Runner, she's about to march into battle against a terrorist organisation that vowed to wipe humanity off the planet. Or what's left of it. Micka mastered the grim art of killing. Now, she must learn the true cost of survival in a world gone mad. ***Award-winning author Annelie Wendeberg delivers a dark dystopian series that brims with fast-paced action and suspense. Based on climate science, Micka's world gives a terrifying glimpse into our possible future. Warning: Contains themes of war, trauma, physical abuse, violence, and other content which may be triggering to some readers. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This reminded me a lot of The Hunger Games but is much better and more realistic. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I have yet to read anything by this contemporary author I did not love; she never disappoints ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This second book is just more of everything from the first book. More intense, action-packed scenarios. It's just as fast-paced and equally thrilling. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ a most captivating and deeply human drama in a future set with death, fear, and hope. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ reminds me of a more grown-up and realistic Hunger Games. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Best book I've ever read in a long time SO AMAZINGLY WRITTEN Perfection at its best.…

As in his other books, Rash is very precise in his use of language, with the prosody being informed by Welsh forms. Many of the poems use a style of syllabic verse featuring seven- syllable lines with internal echos, but most readers will not notice the craftsmanship of these poems because they flow so naturally. There is great narrative intensity in these poems with short poems of short lines telling detailed and vivid stories.
