“She looked up. “A world of nevers under a never sky.”
She fit in well then, he thought. A girl who never shut up.”
― Veronica Rossi, Under the Never Sky
In the future the earth had been decimated by aether storms. The population has been drastically reduced and split between "Dwellers" and "Savages". Aria lives in comfort in the domes and life is lived in a virtual state. Perry lives outside the dome in a hostile landscape. After an escapade in an area off-limits in the dome, Aria is expelled from the community. Perry comes across Aria on his way to get his nephew back from the dwellers who took him. While there is immediate dislike for the other, Aria and Perry strike a deal to help each other achieve their goals: Aria find her mother and Perry his nephew.
I purchased this book from Amazon's bargain books and I was actually quite impressed by it. I enjoyed the story and had to go get the sequel after I finished. The pacing is swift and smooth with some good twists.
Highly recommended.
