Review: Skyhunter

Skyhunter by Marie Lu
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This is a great beginning to another series from Marie Lu. Lots of action/adventure, and Ms. Lu does a fantastic job of building connection to the characters. The heroine Talin is a refugee who has been allowed to join the Maran Strikers, an elite band of warriors whose task it is to defend Mara from the Federation, especially the Federation's mutant Ghosts. Early in the novel, Talin's place as a Striker is challenged first by sorrow and second by the unexpected. The book was un-put-downable. For fans of Marie Lu, this one does not disappoint. If you like Sanderson's Steelheart, Brown's Red Rising, Roth's Divergent, Collins' Hunger Games, and other series in the action/adventure/fantasy/sci fi genres, you'll enjoy this one.
Unfortunately for me, the next book in the series doesn't release until September 2021.
