Summary: For nearly one hundred years the Psy have maintained a cold, emotionless existence, in order to keep control over the vast mental abilities that make them who they are. However, that control is starting to crack, and the Psy Council will stop at nothing to hide the fissures.
Sasha Duncan is a councilor's daughter. She knows better than most the price of failing to conform to Silence, the emotionless rules that are taught to every Psy child.

I love this book. The series really drags you into the different communities and the people that make them up. I have read the first two read-a-likes and rest of the their series, but I have never read anything by Keri Arthur. I'll have to see what I can find by her.
ReplyDeleteHi Brittany! I've never heard of this book! Would you recommend this to someone who is just starting out in the genre, or maybe in Science Fiction?
