Comments
It's an awesome book, where the girls are on top and it's not stereotypical. Now the girl save a boy. It's a big change and that's what makes this story one of the greatest books I've ever read.

I loved this book - fantastic heroine and a great read!
Matilda - Fortismere School
It's highly original, not least the intensity of the characters and the imaginative set pieces. Once you're in the flow, you have to turn the next page.

A great story filled with action and many strong female heroines!
Tanya - St Mark's College
My favourite book of all time is Blood Red Road and it deserves to win. Finally strong females who can be victorious provide thrills and an adventure that one just can't put the book down; with cool language and stark imagery the fantasy becomes so realistic one will find oneself dreaming about it!
