You have absolutely no idea what has become of your family, with zero contact from anyone in the outside world. A prison where you have basically no contact with any other human, other than occasionally shouting through the wall during your exercise hour. Pretty much from the first chapter onwards, I was thrilled to find that this book was totally addictive and definitely can proudly hold its head up and stand alongside some of the best known dystopians as an excellent read, well worth taking the time to read! Because of this, it’s been a while since I dipped into the genre, but there was something about the synopsis of The Loop that really appealed to me. I found that I didn’t enjoy most of the books that were seemingly being churned out and constantly cited as the next Hunger Games. ReviewĪ few years ago, there was a massive surge in YA dystopian novels, largely off the back of The Hunger Games. Were the chains that shackled Luka to his cell the only instruments left to keep him safe? He must overcome fellow prisoners hell-bent on killing him, the warden losing her mind, the rabid rats in the train tunnels, and a population turned into murderous monsters to try and break out of The Loop, save his family, and discover who is responsible for the chaos that has been inflicted upon the world. And it’s not long until the inmates are left alone inside the prison.
Strange things are happening to the guards. The government issued rain stops falling. But rumors of a war on the outside are spreading amongst the inmates, and before they know it, their tortuous routine becomes disrupted. Every inmate is serving a death sentence with the option to push back their execution date by six months if they opt into “Delays”, scientific and medical experiments for the benefit of the elite in the outside world.
It’s Luka Kane’s sixteenth birthday and he’s been inside The Loop for over two years.
