Hear me "ROAR"!

My big question is... WHERE has this book been hiding all these years?!  What a GEM!  The futuristic world in this book is so unique and different from anything I have ever read, yet made so familiar through masterfully crafted, vivid descriptions.  In other words, this author can WRITE!!

My mind is swimming with pod-fighters, Ghengis borgs, The Golden Turrets, Fit Mix, plastic flowers, Awen the Dog?, The Shadows, Mutants, and giant Hawks. What a wild ride!  Mika lives in futuristic London behind a concrete wall designed to protect this overcrowded population from rabid animals; apparently animals carry a deadly Plague.  Mika has a twin sister who disappeared, presumed dead to most, but not to him.  A mysterious organization infiltrates Mika's school and begins recruiting kids for virtual reality pod-fighting games offering huge rewards to the winners.  Maybe this is Mika's opportunity to finally find his sister or at least uncover the truth of what's really going on behind The Wall.  Seems all the mutants are pretty good at this pod-fighting thing, but winning is not just about glory.  It's risky and dangerous! Mika is an intelligent, tough kid that has the power of the "Roar" within him.  Bet you're just are curious about that one as I was.

Mix Hunger Games and Divergent together.  Add a dash of Maze Runner and a pinch of Michael Vey.  Sift in some supernatural powers and cook with more masterful writing; out of the oven comes ROAR.

You will totally eat this one up!
