Under the Never Sky
&#8220;The interwoven narratives of both male and female protagonists offer broad appeal. Already selling in more than twenty countries and with film rights optioned by Warner Bros. Entertainment, Rossi&#8217;s first novel has the potential to be a blockbuster.&#8221; (Voice of Youth Advocates (VOYA))&#8220;Rossi nails the feat of offering dual perspectives. Rossi grounds her worldbuilding in language, creating idioms for the Dwellers and Outsiders that add texture to their respective myths; her characters are brave and complex and her prose smooth and evocative. Inspired, offbeat and mesmerizing.&#8221; (Kirkus Reviews (starred review))&#8220;An incredibly original plot. You won&#8217;t be able to put this book down&#8230;we can&#8217;t wait for the next installment in the trilogy!&#8221; (Seventeen.com)&#8220;An unforgettable dystopian masterpiece.&#8221; (Examiner.com)&#8220;Fans of The Hunger Games will cheer Aria&#8217;s gradual, warrior-like transformation over the course of the novel. Perry is an enigmatic figure whose past emerges slowly and whose strength of character is only amplified by his flaws.&#8221; (Booklist)&#8220;Aria is a memorable protagonist as she battles her own shortcomings with the same ferocity as she fights for the lives of those she loves. The world itself-sharply divided into garishly surreal Realms, cozy Pods, and harsh, unforgiving outside-is as creatively and lavishly developed as the characters themselves.&#8221; (The Horn Book)&#8220;Rossi&#8217;s novel transcends. There&#8217;s a luminescence to her world that denies the grim realities of environmental degradation, domed cities, genetic disease, and roaming bands of cannibals. It comes across as the work of a master craftsman.&#8221; (School Library Journal (starred review))&#8220;Refreshing. Exhilarating. Rossi unravels the world&#8217;s secrets, perils, and wonders with a sure hand.&#8221; (Bulletin of the Center for Children&#8217;s Books)&#8220;Will capture your imagination and your heart.&#8221; (Justine)
