A review by saluki
Blood Red Road by Moira Young
4.0
It took me a short while to get used to reading the dialect, and the lack of speech punctuation, it's written in; but that style also helped give these characters a realistic voice too.
I'll be picking up the sequel Rebel Heart not just for the main characters, but more out of curiosity for two minor characters. And, one is a crow! Yes, Nero is a smart crow and I'm sure there is more to him. Also, without spoilers, a bad-ass character DeMalo is a total enigma... I want to find out more about him.
Totally different to what I expected. There were a few moments when things got tied up too improbably or easily, but it was still a solid and entertaining dystopian tale.
