The Death of Knowledge by Lou Collins

4.0

The Death of Knowledge is a captivating read, luring readers to the land of Scolaris, where perfection prevails. "Knowledge is king" is the law of this mythical land, but exceptions exist. Quill and Red are distinct, memorable and brave characters. When a few Defactos (the lowest people in Scolaris' hierarchy), it is up to Quill and Red to unearth what truly happened. The stakes are high when notable characters are murdered. Lou Collins is a talented writer who weaves a balance between narration, descriptions and dialogue. I cannot believe this is the writer's debut novel! The character development between Quill and Red is well done, igniting the beauty of friendship and the application of knowledge. I must admit that the beginning and ending were vague, but the doorway to another book remains. I will certainly keep my eye out for the next book and can't wait to return to Scolaris. A 4-star read!

I received an advance copy of The Death of Knowledge. This honest review is left voluntarily.
