'Shatterworld'

'Shatterworld' by Lelia Rose Foreman feels like YA sci-fi, though the writing does lend itself to younger readers. It had a strong, enjoyable narrative and nicely balanced dialogue. There was some religious aspects but nothing is rammed down your throat, or portrayed in a cringing fashion. There was a wonderful slow build of suspense to the final showdown, with action of all kinds in the sub-plots. Overall, it was an easy read with an interesting cast of characters. I think there’s appeal for both young teens and curious adults. Also there are some mind-bending concepts as well, so expect to be intrigued and puzzled :)
