This is absolutely my favourite Junior novel so far! Ram is, as always, a delight to follow, and he balanced the other characters very well.

Their portrayal was a little confusing, sounding and acting more like 10-12 year olds then the 14 they were supposed to be, specially considering we already have a baseline for comparison in all the other books.

All in all, it was really sweet and fun to read, while still giving every character complex motivations and exploring the cruelty of the occlusion zone.
