The Roar

In the future, things aren’t the same. The Plague has terrorized humans into hiding behind The Wall. The Wall means safety, away from the dangerous Outside. Inside of London, animals are dead and The Plague is non-existent. Every human in the world is behind The Wall, and guarded with utmost importance. The city is dirty, fresh food is gold. The  poor live in nothing but flooded, moldy broken-down shacks underneath the fairy-palace in the sky.... every day seems mundane and gray, but one day something is different. Mika can’t find his twin, Ellie. They’re different than other children, mutants even. Bullied and harassed, life isn’t so great. But one day, a new game comes to London, sponsored by the government. Pod Fighter is the biggest that anyone has ever heard of... the greatest game ever made. At least, you think it’s a game...

I loved this book. Emma Clayton’s  Futuristic Sci-Fi Action blew me away. This book reminded me of Leviathan by Scott Westerfeld, however it was not as steam-punk as much Future Dystopia.   From the Arcade to London to the Sky, everything flowed and excited me until the very last sentence.
