Produktinformationen zu „Violet Black (ePub)“
In Eileen Merriman's first instalment of a futuristic fantasy trilogy for young adults, we encounter a world not too far removed from our own. . . By merging medical science in a believable setting with science fiction elements, Violet Black will intrigue. . . . Merriman draws in contemporary social issues, not only attitudes to epidemics and vaccines, but also terrorism. As her characters battle vindictiveness, we are asked to think about the importance of individual lives as well as the protection of human qualities in a world of rapid technological transformation. . . . Merriman has shown herself to be a prolific writer across genres and age groups. It is not easy in writing for young people to replicate authenticity and not condescend, even innocently. However, Merriman has no problem in avoiding these pitfalls. . . . this is a tightly structured read where the reader must engage in issues entirely of relevance as we too adjust to an unknown, morphing and daunting present.
