In
a dystopian world, there is no equity among the races/species, and Deep Salt is
the place that all fear. Two young people are found to have the gift of
interspecies, telepathic communication and strike out to create a better world
for themselves, their families and their species. This story follows the paths of Hari and Pearl, two young
‘people’ in a dystopian world where the haves not only rule the have-nots, but
use them as slaves at will. As with so many dystopian fantasties and works of
science fiction, the author presents the ills of today’s society through their
fantastical world of fiction. Well written, the narrative pulls the reader
through the book in a true page turner. Readers will be anxious for the next
installment of the trilogy to see whether Hari and Pearl’s actions have any
long-term consequences. Lyn Fisher
