The Story:
Thalli was scheduled for
annihilation. She was considered an anomaly--able to experience
emotions that should have been eradicated by genetic modification. The
Scientists running the State couldn't allow her to bring undue chaos to
their peaceful, ordered world. But seconds before her death, she is
rescued.
Now Thalli is above ground in a world she thought was
destroyed. A world where not even the air is safe to breathe. She and
her three friends must journey across this unknown land, their
destination a hidden civilization. It's their only chance of survival.
Broken
and exhausted after an arduous journey, they arrive in New Hope, a town
that survived the nuclear holocaust. When Thalli meets the people
there--people actually "born" to "families"--her small world is blown
wide open.
Soon after their arrival to New Hope, the town comes
under attack. She has escaped imminent death, but now Thalli is thrust
into a new fight--a fight to save her new home. Does she know enough
about this world of emotions, this world of chaos, to save not only
herself, but the people she has come to love?
My Reviews:
If you
like dystopian books that have a Christian base then this book is for
you. Luminary is the second book in the series and it opens right where
the first left off. I don't want to give anything away but this book is
great, light reading. Perfect for a weekend getaway! Krista is a
wonderful writer and although I'm not really into the whole science
fiction type books, I really enjoyed this one. Can't wait for the next
installment.
