Welcome to Litsy!

I have mixed feelings about this book. The writing is great and the dystopian stew is tasty, but I find the characters and world-building rather flat (arguably appropriate given the context of social conditioning and control). The result is an interesting deconstruction of a utopian dystopia, but one that never captivated me.

This is a "Divided Elements" Origin Story.

While book 1 and 2 mostly focus on the Fire and Air Elementals, this book is out of the point of view of the Earth Elemental Lira.

I can 100% recommend this novella along with the other books in the series and can't wait for Book 3 to be released.

I had this on my Kindle for the longest and finally started it.... and stayed up last night until I was done.

I really enjoyed this and am definitely going to pick up the second book.

Award-winning dystopian novel, Resistance (Divided Elements #1), has been released with a new cover and is currently free on most ebook distribution sites! The sequel, Rebellion (Divided Elements #2) was released this month!

Quite enjoyed this - I thought it gave a really interesting new angle on dystopian fiction. Full review now up lucindaisreading.wordpress.com

Where are my dystopian fiction fans? You are going to want to check this out. The world building is fantastic, the characters are great ( the female lead is kick-arse) and the writing is quite unlike anything I've read before. If I was going to compare it to something it would be Divergent with hints of 1984 and Brace New World. Wonderful debut - I'm looking forward to the rest of the series. Out on Jan 30. Thanks to Netgalley and the publisher 😊
