Author:
A senior at
the University of Alabama, this is Christian Edwards’ first published work. On
the horizon are her debut novel, The
Mafia Diaries, and Freefall, a
sequel to Skyfall.
Description:
“An uprise
and a war. That's all it took for the government to strip society of their
freedom. An uprise and a war was all it took to give the government access to
everyone's dreams and thoughts. It took an uprise and a war to change Katherine
Sullivan's life forever.
A
futuristic dystopia society is split into two divisions based on income status.
Rich girl
Katherine has her life turned upside down when she's kidnapped by a handsome
poor boy who claims to work for someone very close to her and ordered to bring
her to Skyfall to complete Operation Zero.”
Appraisal:
A short
story that sets up a unique dystopian world, introduces us to some interesting
characters, and takes us through a few conflicts. The resolution of the main
conflict in this story leaves the reader hanging a bit, as it sets up what
appears to be the start of the planned sequel. All in all a fun little read.
Format/Typo Issues:
No
significant issues
Rating: **** Four Stars
