 This was an excellent YA adventure.  In this very fluid, class-oriented society, whole families’ and individuals’ lives can change instantly with the win or loss of a duel.  Conrad and his mother have been disgraced by family and their status dropped to  Low.  He is focused only on revenge and finding a way to rise.  The author does a great job growing Conrad’s character.  He’s been through so much in his short life leading him to trust no one but himself.  He is determined to do everything alone, rely only on himself, and make his way to the top.  Greyson’s writing of Conrad’s growth and new maturity is seamless.  It is an excellent coming of age story in the sky.  There is so much action in this book that it was hard to put down!  If you liked the Hunger Games or Divergent, this is the perfect book for you!
