Reviews
"A gripping adventure." -- Kirkus "Survivor meets James Bond in this page-turning mix of realism and science fiction." -- VOYA "Enthralling and filled with suspense..." -- School Library Journal "Khoury builds a relentless plot and seeds the narrative with a deadly mystery that echoes themes of her first novel, Origin (2012). The science-fiction elements and setting evoke Jurassic Park 's themes of human meddling in nature, while touches of teen angst and love keep the book realistic and broaden the appeal." -- Booklist "A blend of survival/adventure, sci-fi, and first love, KALAHARI is grounded in the resourceful courage of a girl raised in the African bush. Thrilling, unpredictable, irresistible . . . six teenagers in dire straits, and the suspense never lets up. Readers will flock to Jessica Khoury's masterful prose and storytelling." --Will Hobbs, award-winning author of Far North and Never Say Die From the Hardcover edition.
