I'm the incendiary of savages. I burn down thrones.

The Brothers and Sisters of the Apocalypse aren't happy with Micka. She's blown up their satellite network and now passes valuable intel to their fiercest enemy — the Sequencer Council. But nothing goes as Micka plans, and soon the two most powerful global organisations want her dead.

Lines blur between friend and foe.

And Micka is out of options.

A haunting exploration of trauma and survival, for readers of Emily St. John Mandel's Station Eleven, Cormac McCarthy's The Road, and Margaret Atwood's MaddAddam.

Warning: Contains themes of war, trauma, physical abuse, violence, and other content which may be triggering to some readers.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This reminded me a lot of The Hunger Games, but it's much better and more realistic.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I'm a die-hard Micka fan. Annelie's writing takes you deep inside her characters, and her books are not prettied up, but they are real and raw.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This is an excellent but brutal series and not for the faint of heart

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ If you like tough-as-nails, intelligent heroines, this book and series are for you!

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Skillfully explores facets of human behaviour few authors address. Intense relationships under adverse conditions yield a fast-paced tale of conflict and humanity in the not-so-distant future.
