Chaos Walking Trilogy 1: The Knife Of Never Letting Go - Patrick Ness
Quote
Imagine you're the only boy in a town of men. And you can hear everything they think. And they can hear everything you think. Imagine you don't fit in with their plans... Todd Hewitt is just one month away from the birthday that will make him a man. But his town has been keeping secrets from him. Secrets that are going to force him to run...
Just finished this amazing fantasy and all I can say is...wow. Written in the first person, the voice of our young hero, Todd, is compelling and evocative. I was on the edge of my seat throughout. I cried after a particularly heartbreaking loss. The shocking cliffhanger had me scurrying over to Amazon to get books 2 and 3 dl to my Kindle pronto.
If you loved Hunger Games, I'd urge you to try this.

Athos: If you'd told us what you were doing, we might have been able to plan this properly. Aramis: Yes, sorry. Athos: No, no, by all means, let's keep things suicidal.
