4.5
Any interesting concept, but I struggle with the use of atomic weapons and what would be the fallout of its use? Especially in a distance so small from the "town points" but I do enjoy the feel of the madmax/waterworld/earth bending vibes.
This also feels like a YA novel, and some of the concepts reflect that but there are several points that are very dark and feel a little overly detailed.. but maybe that's just my sensitivity to the subjects.
I wish there are more explanation on the sand bending powers thing, because it feels like its not just a tech thing, but a power?
CW: Mentions of sexual assault, rape, graphic details of death or harm.
