Customer review of Ember

Just discovered this British reader's review of Ember From the Sun on the Amazon UK website:


5.0 out of 5 stars: The best book I've read in a long time.I loved this book. Canter is an excellent author, and for a first offering, this is exceptional. Ember, his heroine, displays all the confused emotions you would expect her to - and more. She experiences what everyone does - confusion about her background and why she's here, insecurities about her own appearance and what people think of her. Except, Ember has more of a reason to think this, as she's so different. We can all see a piece of ourselves in her. This is because in a sense we all came from people like her. There is a lot of science mixed into it, but this just makes it more believable. Many tensions are stirred up and there is evidence of the kind of racism that occurs in everyday life. So, all in all, this book is the recipe for a perfect read, and I hope that any other books Canter may produce will be up to this standard.|
