Wastelander; Awakening by Bolivar BeatoMy rating: 4 of 5 stars
Zari and her Dad are travelling across the frozen Tundra that is New England scavenging goods to be sold on the black-market in order to save her younger brother Ant. However she has a future death sentence to look forward to as her nanite wetweave is failing and she will eventually turn into a Jackfrost and lose her mind (becoming a killing machine) - at that point her father will have to make the terrible decision and kill her. Can they find good items and can she keep everything together?
This is a lovely concept and story which definitely makes you wonder if this might happen in the future. I loved the dynamic between Zari and her father as well as between them and the others that they encounter on their travels. There were plenty of surprises as the story unfolded and it was nice to be so surprised in places. Well told and easy to understand it has built up the story nicely and left you with enough intrigue to want to know what happens next.
