Martin may have seen his sister, Cassie, to safety at the end of The Sky Inside, but his adventure is far from over. There's still a totalitarian regime in place, murderous game shows on the air, and a couple of government agents on Martin's tail. When Martin and his AllDog, Chip, go back to his old suburbs to check up on Mom, they get a lot more than they bargained for when they end up escaping with both parents. But the biggest surprise is yet to come--the heart of the government's central power is closer to Martin than he ever suspected.
I finished this book at lunch today and was thrilled with it. It has layers, and can easily be read by the intended audience (young readers) and adults. Fast paced adventure with plenty of twists and turns, yet much food for thought for older teens and adults. Why would someone leave a perfectly good, safe, boring bubble world? What are the ethics behind genetic manipulation? What are the psychic costs to society to attempt to perfect humans? And why are the government agents clones? Thumbs up!
