Incarceron by Catherine Fisher

5.0

This book is fantastic. I really could not put it down. Written in a style similar to most teen fantasy novels, but it was darker, more creative, and never grating. The book always unlike some other teen novels, respects the intelligence of the reader. But mostly it was creative really well done fantasy/sci fi. Creepy as well in some parts. Can I make a tag that is for people living underground that have never seen the outside, because this could probably be a new genre. Though even as this approaches a cliche, I will still love it. My only complaint is sometimes I couldn't figure out what was happening, I find that happens in many books though. The twist I have to say was not expected at all, very well done.
Also this would make a great movie. In my head the character of Gildas is Ian Holm. I mean literally the part was written for him! If they cast anyone else in this theoretical movie I will boycott it.
