As Jez works with the insurgents and their plan to destroy the City, she learns that attacking the City might save thousands of lives, but it will destroy Sol, the man she knows she can’t live without. Praise for SOLSTICE, Book #1: "In this slickly told YA sci-fi tale by Redd, climate change has brought about the world that George Orwell famously predicted, only a century or so behind schedule. [Solstice] has a timely ecological hook. A solid ... YA tale of dictatorship, set in 2099 that parties like it's Nineteen Eighty-Four." --Kirkus Reviews
