Clearly, Wells is not very popular with the teen convicts. I loved following Wells, the son of the Chancellor – the man who ordered the one hundred to earth. I loved the Glass POV because she is our connection to what’s happening back in space. It had the potential to be really compelling. To survive, they must learn to trust – and even love – again. But they’re haunted by their past and uncertain about the future. Confronting the dangers of this rugged new world, they struggle to form a tentative community. After a brutal crash landing, the teens arrive on a savagely beautiful planet they’ve only seen from space. Now, one hundred juvenile delinquents are being sent on a high-stakes mission to recolonize Earth. But faced with dwindling resources and a growing populace, government leaders know they must reclaim their homeland… before it’s too late. No one knows when, or even if, the long-abandoned planet will be habitable again. In the future, humans live in city-like spaceships orbiting far above Earth’s toxic atmosphere.
