SuitabookThe uprising
Lisa M. Stasse
- Reading
- As a sequel, it may help to talk through what your reader remembers from The Forsaken before starting. Pause at tense turns to check how they are finding the danger and uncertainty.
- Themes
- Resistance and government power: Alenna and her allies aim to gain control of the Wheel and use it as a base for revolution against the UNA. The premise sets up a conflict over resistance to a totalitarian power, but does not establish how the story evaluates the rebellion or its methods.
- Worth knowing
- The plot includes brutality, survival threats, betrayals and danger to loved ones. Consider whether these kinds of high-stakes conflict feel engaging or unsettling for your reader.
