An introduction to the SciFi genre, these books are part of the cultural zeitgeist or the 'canon' that many would recognize. Look for more niche titles in later Starter Pack volumes.

"the only way not to fear death is to meet it"
✎ . . 1.5/5 stars
i. at a glance • characters ; basic & boring • atmosphere/setting ; felt lazy • plot ; predictable & repetitive • intrigue ; nothing groundbreaking but it's an easy read • logic ; -
ii. thoughts this was pitched as a hunger games x fantasy mix, but i didn't get any of that. where were the high stakes, the tension and the violence? i LOVED the hunger games (fav. series of the year), lightlark left me feeling disappointed. i'm definitely the wrong target audience for this but i feel like i've read better ya.
it was hard to believe the characters actually had relationships with each other. the age gap between isla (mc who's presumably under 25) and grim / oro (both who are 500+) irked me. the romance between them was non-existent, it's hard to believe they actually loved each other. the magic system & curses were the only thing that interested me, even the naming felt a bit lazy (moonlings for moon isle, etc). plot was repetitive and predictable, a major chunk of the book being the characters searching for something then being unable to find it, and repeating a few times. i still don't understand the whole point of the centennial to be honest. a bit of a shame because the cover was really pretty.
iii. recommendation no, i personally wouldn't recommend it.
