Gr 10 Up–What would you do if you found out you were genetically altered as an embryo by your adoptive father to control Earth's elements? Foster and Tate were drawn to each other and now must survive to escape the Core Four, more superpowered beings genetically engineered by Foster's adoptive father, Dr. Rick. He is on a mission to control the world's climate and make millions. Foster and Tate fight to find the others like them and keep them safe from the power-hungry and drug-addicted doctor's grasp. Readers of the Casts' previous books will be excited for this new series opener. This sci-fi romance offers a diverse cast and an action-packed plot. It is a great choice for both new adult and young adult readers, as the teen protagonists are 18 and the villainous Core Four are in their 30s.
VERDICT An engaging read highly recommended for young adult collections where the authors are popular.
