Krátky popis
",Reminiscent of Angie Thomas' The Hate U Give, Jackson's
too-close-to-home dystopian novel adds a level of thought-provoking
complexity that will undoubtedly compel readers to grapple with the
use and abuse of power by government entities", - Booklist,
(STARRED review)The Hate U Give meets Internment in this
pulse-pounding thriller about an impenetrable dome around Baltimore
that is keeping the residents in and information from going out
during a city-wide protest. Jamal Lawson just wanted to be a part
of something. As an aspiring journalist, he packs up his camera and
heads to Baltimore to document a rally protesting police brutality
after another Black man is murdered.But before it even really
begins, the city implements a new safety protocol...the Dome. The
Dome surrounds the city, forcing those within to subscribe to a
total militarized shutdown. No one can get in, and no one can get
out.Alone in a strange place, Jamal doesn't know where to
turn...until he meets hacker Marco, who knows more than he lets on,
and Catherine, an AWOL basic-training-graduate, whose parents
helped build the initial plans for the Dome. As unrest inside of
Baltimore grows throughout the days-long lockdown, Marco,
Catherine, and Jamal take the fight directly to the chief of
police. But the city is corrupt from the inside out, and it's going
to take everything they have to survive.",A hopeful ending is
painstakingly earned, and frankly these smart, brave, and loyal
Latinx and Black kids flat out deserve this win and then
some.",-The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books",This novel
will keep readers on their toes, holding their breath, and hoping
Jamal makes it out of the dome alive. A highly recommended,
thrilling read", - School Library Journal, (STARRED review)",Plan
to read this on the edge of your seat, knowing the whole time it's
a little too relevant for comfort of any kind. ", - School Library
Connection",In a first-person POV that's both unafraid and
unapologetic, Jackson brings a sci-fi twist to the reality of
police brutality and the oftentimes literal silencing of
marginalized peoples, putting queer people of color at the helm of
effective change", - Publishers Weekly",...a searing futuristic
story of systemic racism, police brutality, and unchecked power", -
Horn Book",A speculative thriller about personal growth that deals
with all-too-real traumas.", - Kirkus
