I was gathering holds one morning and saw this book on the shelf in the juvenile fiction section. A review line on the cover described it as Hunger Games meets Harry Potter. How could I not pick it up for Samantha and myself? She raced through it and really loved it, so I gave it a go as well. It was interesting but not as fabulously outstanding as Harry Potter or Hunger Games.
Quill keeps itself strong by getting rid of the 13-year-olds that are at all creative. Only the strong and smart with no spark of creativity are what they want. They believe the purged are destroyed in a lake of boiling oil but instead they live in a land of magic called Artime where they are treasured for their gifts. But what will happen will Quill discovers Artime's existence?
If you are going through withdrawal from Harry Potter/Hunger Games, this book should help assuage your longings.
