Review & Description
THE CHRONICLES OF LANDON WICKER: THE SEARCH FOR ARTEMIS is a journey into a world of extraordinary abilities; where people don’t just see—but control—the world around them; where teenagers can lift city buses with a thought; and the chosen experience another’s memories through linked minds.Welcome to a world where the government—regardless of the ethical implications—tolerates genetic experimentation, and exploitation and deception are commonplace, as long as those being used remain ignorant.Fourteen-year-old Landon Wicker is psychokinetic, but the tragic unleashing of his abilities forces him to run from everything he knows. Alone, terrified and unable to remember the events that compelled him to flee, Landon fights to survive and understand what’s happening to him. He finds solace, however, in the company of hundreds of psychokinetics like him when he’s brought to the Gymnasium.As Landon struggles to accept his new reality and guilt over his painful secret, he learns his new strengths and discovers potential he never realized existed within him. But everything changes when a chance encounter with a mysterious girl propels him on a hunt for answers. Uncovering dark truths the Gymnasium would do anything to keep hidden, Landon is forced to choose where his loyalties lie.Will Landon accept his past—and his future? Will he discover the truth? What’s hidden in the Restricted Tower, and who is Artemis?I really thought this was an incredibly strong YA excerpt and I can see the possibilities with this one. Landon seems like a great kid and we want to root for him. It was beyond shocking that he could have caused the death of his mother and I really want to know what happens to him after he runs away!I enjoyed reading this immensely. I like the characters, the plot, and the use of language. To say anymore would just reiterate: I love it. Read more
