The book starts off with Matt being a little boy living with his Keeper, Celia. Celia tells Matt that he cannot go outside because of the monsters, Matt being a young boy believes her. Matt soon discovers that the outside world is not full of monsters, but is quite dangerous. One night Matt had company, but the company left and Matt still wanted to play, leading to him smashing a window and inadvertently ends up cutting himself. He was rushed to a nearby infirmary, and was soon discovered to be the clone of El Patron. This caused fear in those who brought him to the infirmary because El Patron, the one man whom runs and rules the entire country.
I think that this book was great, and quite often surprised me with a turn in scene. I enjoyed reading about Maria and Matt, whom both fall in love. Each character in the book is made separately, each with there own image. I feel that this book deserves a 9/10 rating because of how unique it is. This book will keep you at the edge of your seat, exhilarating, and heart pounding, a book to read over & over. I recommend this book to readers whom enjoy a novel full of adventure.
Thank you for this review Chris. Remember that in a book review the critique should be the most important part, and all of your assertions about the novel should be supported by precise details from the text.
