I’ve often seen people compare this novel to The Giver by Lois Lowry, but I would much more closely compare it to the second book in The Giver quartet, Gathering Blue. Many of the themes and plot points seem almost directly taken to Lowry‘s story. Although this is indeed, a an enjoyable read, I can’t help but feel that,in this case, Icarus has flown too close to the sun. still, I’m going to read the second installment with hopes that that trend doesn’t continue. Lois Lowry is one of my favorite authors and has inspired my writing, in many ways. But I would never want to go as far as Forde has.
