Query: a good start

this falls neatly and admittedly a bit predictably into the dystopic-"our world is the only world" genre. Characterization and world-creation is somewhat sparse, but detracts very little from what is an enjoyable quick read and one well-suited to young adult The story moves along at a good pace and if you see some of the events coming from a while away, DuPrau throws in enough nice small touches so you don't really mind. Nor do you mind the obvious opportunity for a sequel--if the characters are not deeply drawn, they are likable and interesting enough that it would be nice to see them develop further. The book would also work for teachers as a nice companion piece to similar works, such as the Giver or Anthem.
