The first book in the series, which seemed to borrow from "The Matrix" and Lois Lowry’s "The Giver," showed some promise. However, this sequel is sloppy and has little appeal. This book is a classic case of being told, not shown, through below-average dialog and convenient plot devices. Characters are quickly introduced and go out of their way to assist Dante and Bea without any cause. It’s almost impossible to become emotionally invested in Dante because he is such a flat character.

There’s another cliff-hanger ending, which might throw readers, but will most likely not encourage them to read the next book. (
