In Book 1 of the
Resistance Trilogy, Tommy and Careen, college students, meet when a
drug to help protect the population from terrorism is passed out. The
drug is not what it seems and Tommy and Careen band together to fight
the web of lies that is causing the population to become unable to do
anything but what the government decrees.
In Book 2, Resist,
Tommy and Careen are on the run. They've joined the resistance. Their
goal is to rescue a group of dissenters that includes Tommy's
parents. As they pursue this goal, they meet other people who think
as they do and some who are deceptive. Their relationship is tested
when they find they can't agree about everything, but they continue
to work through their issues and help the other freedom fighters.
This is a fast paced
dystopian thriller. The action begins in the first chapter and
continues at a relentless pace throughout the book. Although Tommy
and Careen are the main characters, other characters, including those
behind the evil, have chapters written in their point of view. This
provides a vehicle for giving information about what is happening in
the enemy camp, things Tommy and Careen can't know.
I enjoyed the book.
The characters are likable and the plot has numerous twists. If you
enjoy dystopian novels, you may find this trilogy appealing.
I reviewed this book
for PR by the Book.
