From USA Today bestselling author Michelle Lynn comes a dystopian tale of family, freedom and love.
My name is Dawn Nolan, and I grew up on the military-controlled streets of London.
Now, the one person I could always count on has been taken from me. Gabby is pushy and a real pain -- but she's the reason I've survived this long.
She's my sister. And now she's gone.
Criminals are sent to the colonies to work as slaves. There is no escape. I know that it's a savage place, especially for a teenage girl from the wrong side of London.
I might die trying. I'll probably never see London again. But they've taken my sister, and I'm going to get her back.
Dawn of Rebellion Dawn of Rebellion Series Book 1 eBook Michelle Lynn
I've read quite a few YA dystopian novels and am always wary of "more of the same." I was pleasantly surprised to find Lynn's offering is anything but "more of the same." Although it does include a future in ruins and a subversive society, what I loved about this story was the heart of its characters. Instead of focusing solely on a romantic coupling as so many other YA novels tend to do, this one focused on the bond between two sisters, Dawn and Gabby, and although the chapters are told in alternative format (very well, I might add) I love that as a reader I really got a feel for the love between the sisters and the growth that takes place for Dawn over the course of the novel. Highly recommend for enthusiasts of this genre and will definitely be picking up book two in this series.Product details

Dawn of Rebellion Dawn of Rebellion Series Book 1 eBook Michelle Lynn Reviews
Soo, I read 83% of the book in 1 night. Yup, love this book! Lol, I especially enjoyed the British verbage and slang. Even learned a couple new ones, which is awesome. -D
I really adore Dawn and Sam. I'm still warming up to Drew & Jeremy. Although, Gabby has a huge heart for her sister & Claire… I just don't know that I really like her. She bossy, snotty & rude. Sooo, we'll see.
Editing was good and word building was excellent. The ending ,well, I was mad, sad, worried, suspicious… Ugggh, I can't wait to read book 2!
My star ratings include these 5 elements
1★ story line
1★ engaging characters
1★ use of word building
1★ being well edited
1★ the ending
Dawn and her older sister, Gabby, live in Dystopia London. The story is told from their points of view, and done quite well, as it’s early in the story that they are separated. There is never a time when I felt I had missed something the other was doing. I struggled a bit in the very beginning, to feel connected to the characters, but I think it is because so much was happening. They grew and developed as individuals and in their relationships though, so it didn’t take long before I became rather attached!
The action scenes were great, and the importance put on family really spoke to me. The idea of doing anything to save the ones you love rang true and kept the book thriving as Dawn battled traveling over land and sea to save her sister. The bonds of sisterhood are like nothing else and Michelle Lynn shows us that with her writing.
If you like YA, dark adventure, and vibrant characters, this is your book. I will pick up book two as soon as possible, as this was a terrific start to what I expect will be a wonderful series.
Michelle Lynn has created a nightmare world in her novel "Dawn of Rebellion;" a world in which Great Britain is in the hands of a brutal military dictatorship and what was once the United States of America is a ruined land deemed fit to serve as nothing more than a penal colony.
The story revolves around two sisters who, abandoned by their mother after their father is reportedly killed in an accident, hide the fact that they are alone in the world as an alternative to being sent to different foster care homes. Theirs is not a cheery existence They live in abandoned buildings, sometimes moving as many as five times in a month, and seldom have enough to eat. Dawn, the younger of the two girls, is a good student hoping to be sent to university after high school while her older sister Gabby is an athlete destined to be placed in the military by a British government seeking to control every aspect of people's lives.
Suddenly, as if their lives aren't bad enough, things get worse.
Much, much worse.
Gabby is arrested one afternoon after stealing a small bracelet to give to Dawn for her birthday. Because she is thought to be "unsuitable" by the high-ranking military officer who is the father of the boy she is dating she is shipped off - without a trial - to "the colonies" and winds up working on a penal farm in America.
When they learn of this, Dawn and Gabby's boyfriend decide they are going to rescue her, though exactly how is something of an issue for them since there are 3,000 miles of ocean between their homes in London and the American penal colonies.
Add to that the fact they don't know exactly where Gabby is and you have the makings of a really wonderful adventure story.
Lynn has written this novel - the first in what is meant to be a series - in a fast-paced, almost cinematic style. Chapters are short and the writing is crisp. Each chapter is narrated in first person by its "author" and some are little more than a paragraph in length. As an author myself I know that it is extremely difficult to write in this fashion without losing the reader because of the rapid scene changes. As a reader I can say that Lynn manages to pull it off nicely. In my opinion, she is able to do this because there is virtually no clutter in her chapters; no meaningless descriptions of ruined landscapes or endless rants about the unfairness of life in a world gone mad. Instead, Lynn leaves it up to the reader to fill in the blanks and I, for one, appreciate the fact she is not spoon feeding me every minute detail of this adventure.
"Dawn of Rebellion" is not a long novel but it manages to be both a well-written adventure and the story of a young woman's first tentative steps into that minefield we know love can sometimes be. Additionally, this is a novel that speaks strongly and clearly about the sacrifices people make for those they love, the ties that bind families and friends to one another, courage in the face of long odds and loyalty. Despite the brevity of its chapters, there are some very poignant moments in this novel that add great emotional depth to the narrative.
I highly recommend it and, honestly, can't wait to read the second novel in this series.
I've read quite a few YA dystopian novels and am always wary of "more of the same." I was pleasantly surprised to find Lynn's offering is anything but "more of the same."
