My Review:
The people of Cueva live underground in caves in rooms
carved out of the mountain. The people of Cueva live underground in the dark
away from the deadly sun because it causes cancer. The children live on one
side of the cave while the adults live on the other side.
When they reach eighteen they get to visit Purenet a city
that is protected by a dome which allows the people to be outside to enjoy the
sun along with the green grass and trees without causing them any problems.
The people of Cueva have choice to make when they reach eighteen;
girls have the choice of becoming a Host or a Bazi to earn bitcoins; boys have
the option of becoming a Bazi or entering the Sanction Games to earn bitcoins
as well. Skylier and her brother Rian want to earn bitcoins so they can buy
medicine to cure their mother who is dying of cancer.
I love reading dystopian novels and I have to say that The
Deadly Sun has been one of the best that I have read so far and I can’t wait to
check out the next book in the series The Rising Tide and then the third book The
Sanction Games.
The Deadly Sun grabbed me from the beginning and didn’t let
go until I turned the last page. I read it in one setting or should I say I
devoured it in one setting. Now that is more like it. I loved the world of
Cueva and Purenet.
The Deadly Sun is filled with more twist and turns than a
roller coaster. It will have you on the edge of your seat waiting to find out
what is just around the next corner. Skylier and Dax are two of the strongest
characters I think I have seen in a long, long time. Oh and I just loved Callie
she was just amazing and so sweet.
I would recommend The Deadly Sun to anyone who loves reading
a great and fantastic dystopian novel. It is out of this world amazing.
About the Author

siblings was difficult but at the same time character building.
As a young child I found a passion for drawing and writing, which has stayed with me into adulthood. I graduated from the University of Central Lancashire, England with a BA(Hons) in fashion design.
At aged twenty seven, my husband and I packed up our belongings for our lifelong dream to move to California. Our America dream was completed with the birth of our daughter.

A new job opportunity
opened up New York, and we decided to relocate to Long Island, NY, where we
