Tankborn
Review
By Gail Shepherd, Paradoxy
I think this is the Young Adult book that the adult science fiction fans have been waiting for. Tankborn is not only an excellent science fiction dystopian, but it shares the hallmarks of classic science fiction: excellent worldbuilding, a scientific foundation, morality that leads to more questions than answers, and a plot that ties them all together. Sandler’s take on class warfare and the solutions to it are interesting as reflections to our modern issues. Her characterization of Kayla is sympathetic and believable. The world of Loka is incredibly detailed, and unlike a lot of modern dystopians, where you feel that the author is making up the world as they need it to advance the plot, with Sandler you get the feeling that there is so much more to Svarga than presented.
