A review by a_bailey
Exile by Lisa M. Bradley
3.0
This novel takes place in a town where a chemical spill has poisoned locals causing them to go into a permanent rage. The main character is a towny trying to escape to the outside through legitimate means, in this case, that that means the 4 S test – Sane, Smart, Strong Sterile. So far, she has been unsuccessful. Then her brother is murdered, she starts dating his murderer, and all hell breaks loose.
I would say the SF elements in this book are rather light, which worked well for me as a palette cleanser. And, honestly, it came across more as erotica, but it’s possible I just don’t wander across a lot of steamy novels. That being said it moves at a pretty fast pace and contains plenty of violence for the action junkies out there. There’s also a good amount of tension and mystery between the characters, as you try to figure out their motivations. If you like character-based stories with a few graphic sex scenes, and a good dash of violence, this is a good book for you.
