Summary

It only taykes one person to start a revolushun. 

Life in Bearmouth is one of hard labour, the sunlit world above the mine a distant memory. Reward will come in the next life with the benevolence of the Mayker. New accepts everything - that is, until the mysterious Devlin arrives. Suddenly, Newt starts to look at Bearmouth with a fresh perspective, questioning the system and setting in motion a chain of events that could destroy their entire world. 

In this powerful and brilliantly original debut novel, friendship creates strength, courage is hard-won and hope is the path to freedom.

Dark but Wonderful

Excellent writing and characterisation which was very well performed. Story a lot darker than I was anticipating, even considering it's set underground! It isn't a YA other than the age of the main character, over 16 at least reader wise I'd suggest. Thrilling and emotional and richly complex. Definitely one of the best first novels I've heard.
