Angel Bird's journey continues in this gripping dystopian tale about seeking revenge, finding redemption, and answering the call to serve a higher cause than one's own. A girl. A vox. An uprising. Two years after her journey of vengeance began in Children of the Revolution, Angel Bird and her daughter, Lark, survive quietly in the blur near the rocky shores of Lake Superior. The Galt Corporation's iron grip on the Protectorate and the Great Lakes has not diminished. And time has not dulled the sharp edges of Angel's loss and rage, nor brought answers about her past to light. Angel desperately longs to find her birth mother, who left her with only a name and a warning scrawled in blood-Angel, there is a fate worse than death. But that longing remains an impossible dream until the day a mysterious stranger confronts her with a startling request: he needs her vox to stir the restless masses who toil in service to their ruthless overseers, whose very lives are dictated by the needs of the corporation. A vox to fan the flames of rebellion that have begun to smolder in the surveillance state of the Protectorate. Words are the deadliest weapons. In the tradition of Fahrenheit 451, The Night Prophet is dystopian fiction with a burning heart, speculative fiction that immerses you in the inner lives of its characters, and a futuristic adventure that paints its bleak world through vibrant, lyrical prose. Fans of The Hunger Games and The Handmaid's Tale and other stories with a strong, female protagonist may want to give the Children of the Revolution series from this award-winning author a look.
