Sure, Enclave has this but, Locke, in his skill, has given us just enough of that to meet the standards of the genre. I read a great deal of dystopian literature and much of it is sci-fi based with characters in peril because of something bad that has happened. Once I realized this author, whose expansive career has covered multiple genres for teens and adults, was doing something different, then I was able to dive into the tale. This was my first mistake and why it took me a while to get into the book. So, when I began this book, I assumed I would be getting a dystopian thriller with a few stylistic flairs for which the author was known. His writing under various names, has engaged me for years. I must admit up front that I am a fan of Thomas Locke, so I had high expectations coming in. I received a complimentary copy of this book in exchange for an honest review of its merits.
