Dan escaped captivity from the mountain long ago, but believes his brother is still there and waits each day in a nearby town for his escape. What Dan doesn't realize is that the rest of the townspeople are also waiting--but for reasons he never imagined.I was confused about this book at first, but as I kept reading the pieces started coming together. It was intense, a bit eerie, sometimes heart warming, all the while being a big puzzle. You know they escaped the mountain but you don't exactly know what happened on the mountain. They make it sound like it's full of pain and despair but you're not sure why. The entire book was a mystery, even until the end. Some questions were answered, but I was waiting for some parallel or deeper meaning behind the plot, but I was left at a loss. It was a good read and I wanted to keep going, but I didn't get all the answers or conclusions I was looking for by the last page.
This review will make more sense if you've read the book. :)
Many thanks for Revell Books for the chance to read this!
