In Blood red road Saba defeated the Tonton
and was reunited with her brother. In this sequel, Saba has to deal with the
consequences of her previous violence and face a new but familiar enemy.
I really
enjoyed the style of writing in Blood red road, once I got past the lack of
speech marks. Its unique style is continued in Rebel heart and really contributes to the world building. The
society in which they now live is more agricultural/physical than intellectual
as they struggle against each other and a world which has been transformed by
climate change. Saba finds her relationship with her beloved brother tested by
her love for Jack who is no longer trustworthy. She has always been hot-blooded
and impetuous and she is still the same. She makes some foolish choices in Rebel heart and, although she deals with
some of the repercussions in this book, there are sure to be darker
repercussions in the next.
