BOOK ONE: THE NEVER DAWNREVIEW: "I devoured this book. Designed as fiction for Young Adults, the author has layered elements of dystopian futures reminiscent of 1984 and a Brave New World with punchy descriptions and believable characterisation that will intrigue readers of all ages. I read a lot of books and second guess a lot of them. I just didn't see that ending coming at all. I have just begun the sequel, and I only hope that if lives up to the first.
