This wasвЂ¦ interesting, and also not my type of book, and kind of disappointing. Many thanks to Penguin for an ARC.moreДў 1/2 stars. A fantastic and absorbing read that I highly recommend. I have no doubt that this is a book that is going to do well, and quite frankly it deserves to do so. Cat is tough, vulnerable and courageous, willing to put the interests of the world above her own. The characters grab your interest, are well developed, and nuanced. The narrative is imaginative, has considerable depth, and the story is impressively plotted. Suvada has taken established science fiction tropes and given them an original spin in this novel. There is clearly more to come in this story as the issues are not resolved. This is an atmospheric and gripping story that you cannot stop reading until you reach the climactic end. In the meantime, Cat and Cole's relationship assumes a chemistry and importance that neither see coming. This leads to momentous world shifts as Cat is forced to rearrange her realities. Cat's journey leads her to discover that there is much more to her than she was ever aware of. Cat is astonished to discover that a Cartaxus bunker is nothing like what she expected it to be. As Cat and Cole endeavour to reach the Canadian Lab, they face betrayal from every corner and nothing is as it seems. Cat is not certain she can trust Cole, but it soon becomes clear that her father has coded him so that he will protect Cat as his most overriding mission. Healing Apps are in everyday use, and the scientific explanations, given in some detail, are clear and easily understandable. Suvada creates an intricate and complex post-apocalyptic world where people can be implanted with technology to recode their DNA, to potentially become whatever they want to be. Cole is implanted with the latest technology, including the vaccine, but the coding is beyond them, the only way they can save the world is by working together and making their way to a Canadian Laboratory. However, a Cartaxus soldier, Lieutenant Cole Franklin, now seeks her out, under the radar, to inform her of the death of Lachlan, and that he succeeded in developing a vaccine. Before he was taken, he drummed it into Catarina that she must never trust or have anything to do with Cartaxus. He and his assistant, Dax, were forcibly taken by Cartaxus, to work for them two years ago. She is the daughter of the most able scientist in the country, Dr Lachlan Agatta, working on a solution to the plague. Catarina Agatta is a talented hacker, 'bobcat', working with The Skies resistance movement against the monolithic Cartaxus Corporation.
