Under the Never Sky by Veronica Rossi



Under the Never sky

Veronica Rossi has written Under the Never Sky, building a dystopian future world. The teen protagonist Aria has grown up as a privileged member of an enclosed city - Reverie, until she has to find her mother who has disappeared. In the course of her search she sneaks into a restricted area and is subsequently exiled. Exile means almost certain death, outside the dome city is a wasteland where violent storms, environmental degradation, cannibals and deprivation rule. Peregrine has survived, growing up as an outsider, he and Aria have nothing in common.  However her struggle to survive and his quest to redeem himself are inextricably bound together. They form a powerful bond and Rossi is able to examine the different perspectives of both the main characters in this fast paced and compelling novel.  

This is the first in a trilogy, the second entitled Through the Ever Night, the third Into the Still Blue is expected early 2014. There is also a prequel novella called Roar and Liv available on ebook.
