Three Times The Charm

The Revolt starts right where The Clones left off throwing you back into the storyline that was built up through the last two books. This fast paced sequel explains more about the characters and their mental as well as physical growth. It's actually one of the most interesting pieces of this book is how the chracters grow and change through the series. The triangle formed by three of the main characters (Brigand,Sharla and Corgan), is constantly developing and improving. The seperate and smaller triangle formed by Corgan, Ananda and Cyborg/Seabrig (They're the same person). The seperate thoughts and actions in these triangles always seem to effect not only the people in the triangle, but the people outside more than anyone expected. This also added to the effect this book will have on readers just because they'll feel the need to find out what happens next.. . This book also increases the terms of the connection between the clone twins, Cyborg and Brigand which only adds to the appeal of the book. Overall the book was an amazing read due to its plot, character development, psychological games and sheer suspense that will keep readers hungry for more and awaiting the next adventure in the series.

The greatest book ever with the biggest cliff hanger!!

I read the book,The Revolt by Gloria Skurzynski, and thought it was AMAZING!!!Alot of cool and interesting stuff happens and everything is explained very clearly.After you finish the book,It leaves you wanting more,and fast!It's interesting with the whole battle with one character and differnt characters betraying eachother and turning on eachother.It is a good book for everyone and what I liked most is that one character, Ananda, is from India.I'm Hispanic and hate seeing the same race in every book like the main characters are usually white (no offense).It made me happy that there is a different race in this book other than just on race.

Mind-Boggling

I Enjoyed Reading this book, I love the plot of the series, I finally understand what it means to be seating on the edge of your seats while reading. The last couple of pages had me really going.Plot-wise I think the Virtual War series beats practically almost all the books. It's amazing how practically the last half of the book is the climax, The Revolt will not disapoint anyone, and will leave them craving for more. Because this is a series it is good to read all three of the books in the series out so far by Gloria Skurxynski. Virtual War The Clones The Revolt

Onward and Upward!

This book puts an end to the theory that sequels are never as good the original. Virtual War is an incredibly engaging book that allows readers to relate to characters while at the same time allowing them to experience highly unusual and exciting events. The Revolt is no excepion, following the pre-laid pattern of page turning suspense, action and sentiment. I couldn't put it down!
