Incarceron By Catherine Fisher

This is going to be a short review.  Not because there is not a lot to say about this book; but because I really did not enjoy this book as much as I thought.
It was the Booknerds January book read and when I read the synopsis I thought it was going to be great.  Then I started reading it and I just could not keep up with it.
There was a lot of back and forth between characters.  Plus it was set in the future but it had an “old-world” feel.  I just could not keep up with all the points of view.  It is not that I do not like those types of authors or books but this one did not seem to flow well.
I am just hoping that the movie will be better

  1. I agree with you. It looked... pretty but never grabbed me.

  2. I have had this book on my shelf well forever and it might just stay there for a while longer. Thanks for the mini-review!

  3. INCARCERON will probably best appeal to fans of high sci-fi or fantasy, as it is a difficult story to digest. But if this is the type of book you crave, then you will be justly rewarded for your time. Perhaps you, too, will be like me, and try to recommend this book to everyone you know, believing that it is a book worthy of handselling and wider recognition.
