Insurrection

By Kadee Carder

Description:

Saylor had been told she was a stain on the cloth of mankind. When she and her sister orphans Micah, Denise, and Patricia are apprehended upon the high seas, they find themselves imprisoned on a Caribbean island filled with strange noises, dazzling beaches, and a secret military base. Wavering between terror and ecstasy, Saylor develops her inner warrior while facing an enemy exposing her indispensable abilities. In order to rescue her sisters, impress the hunky Australian, and protect innocent lives on a global scale, she must master techniques of fighting an army created to destroy with a single, scorching touch – or die trying.

Book Takeaway:

They wanted a warrior. They got one.

Why the author wrote this book:

Growing up a child of the 80's, I didn't have a lot of strong female characters to study in fiction. Boys had all the adventures. When my friends and I played our game, we pretended to be boys, so we could have fun. Now as a mom, a teacher, and a professional coffee-drinker, I say, let's show 'em what girls can do! Let's pull out the boxing gloves and baseball bats, tighten those ponytails, and make sure we have sparkly things on our nails. Because girls have to be stronger than they know, and rise to it with a smile. We got this. Go crush it, ladies. Your adventure awaits.

And if you weren't sure about purchasing, then, give it a shot! What are we without art? What are we without long-shots? What are we without adventure? Ask Saylor. Or ask me. But I'm just some girl, sitting around pushing buttons late into the night, helping my invisible friends dance toward the stars.
