Trade Review
I finished this book over the weekend, and all I can say is that I wish I read it slower, because the wait for the next book is going to be painful.
It's high adrenaline stuff...the double-crossing and duplicity is the real loop-the-loop, awesome roller-coaster star attraction. * Sci-Fi Now *
All the characters are great, and the relationships that Victoria Aveyard builds and breaks between them will have you feeling all the emotions, there is a great mix of action and contemplation that works so terrifically well. * Liz Loves Books *
Aveyard weaves a compelling new world, and Mare and the two men in her life evolve intriguingly as class tension rises. Revolution supersedes romance, setting the stage for action-packed surprises. An inventive, character-driven twist breathes new life into tired fantasy trends. * KIRKUS *
'Red Queen is a clever blend of The Hunger Games, The Selection, Graceling and Divergent.' * STARBURST *
"A whirlwind of betrayal and plot twists." * SCI-FI NOW *
"It's slick, it's interesting and ... gripping." * SFX *
All hail Victoria Aveyard - the new Queen of dystopian fiction. * THE GUARDIAN CHILDRENS BOOKS *
