Critics Review

Fans of Hunger Games and Red Rising will devour this - it’s ridiculously good. I loved every page

Fans of Hunger Games and Red Rising will devour this - it’s ridiculously good. I loved every page – K.D., GoodreadsIn a word: Wow. I could not put it down. If I could give it six stars, I would – Nic Stone, GoodreadsAn absolute page-turner – Vic James, author of ‘Gilded Cage’My most anticipated YA debut of 2017 – Pied Piper, GoodreadsFast-moving and thrilling, and very difficult to put down – Justin, GoodreadsThe setup will draw comparisons to The Hunger Games, but Reintgen’s characters stand on their own, and the trials they face are inventive. Emmett’s self-deprecation, wit, and ability to see the good in others will keep readers riveted and eager for the next volume in this planned trilogy * Publishers Weekly *A black protagonist in outer space is welcome…copious action and a reality TV atmosphere (the scoreboard shows regularly) make the pace flow. Fast-moving and intriguing * Kirkus Reviews *An amazing adventure of intelligence and strength, this sci-fi book presents diverse and complex characters in a tale about greed and internal compromise. The author brings to life more than a dozen characters with depth and individual personalities and agendas. This is a wonderful example of how personal and corporate values are often intertwined despite being at odds with each other. Verdict: Fans of The Hunger Games and The Maze Runner series will enjoy this series opener * School Library Journal *File this book under A for Amazing – Jay Kristoff * New York Times bestselling author of The Illuminae Files *Brilliant concept meets stellar execution in this fast-paced deep space adventure. I was hooked from page one * Victoria Schwab, #1 New York Times bestselling author *

About The Author

Scott Reintgen

Scott Reintgen has spent his career teaching English and Creative Writing in diverse urban communities in the United States. The hardest lesson he learned was that inspiration isn’t equally accessible for everyone. So he set out to write a novel for the front-row sleepers and back-row dreamers of his classrooms. He hopes that his former students see themselves, vibrant and on the page, in characters like Emmett. Nyxia and Nyxia Unleashed are the first two novels in The Nyxia Triad.
