Waiting on Wednesday: The Walls Have Eyes by Clare Dunkle

"Waiting on" Wednesday was created by Jill of Breaking the Spine, and is a way for bloggers to share the upcoming books that they're longing for. This week I'm waiting on...

The Walls Have Eyes

by Clare B. Dunkle
Sequel to: The Sky Inside
Released August 25th, 2009

Martin Glass may have seen his baby sister Cassie to safety at the end of The Sky Inside, but his problems are far from over. There’s a totalitarian regime in place, murderous game shows on the air, and a host of government agents on Martin’s tail. And Martin and his Alldog, Chip, get more than they bargained for when they go back to Martin’s old suburb and have to rescue Martin’s parents. But spending time in the wilderness with Mom and Dad isn’t the worst of it. Because Martin learns that Cassie is still in danger—and to keep her and the other Wonder Babies safe, he’s going to have to risk the thing he loves most. Clare Dunkle brings her signature sense of pacing an adventure to a new story of Martin, Chip, and the rest of her varied cast in a story that widens and deepens the fascinating and multifaceted world she presented in The Sky Inside.

Why I'm waiting:
All of Ms. Dunkle's previous books have been fabulous, from her Hollow Kingdom Trilogy to this book's prequel, The Sky Inside.

  1. I loved the Hollow Kingdom, I didn't know about this series. I'll have to try it.

  2. "There’s a totalitarian regime in place, murderous game shows on the air, and a host of government agents on Martin’s tail".... sounds a bit like the Hunger Games!

  3. I only just made the Hollow Kingdom/Sky Inside connection...and I only just read, and loved, the Hollow Kingdom. The Sky Inside might not have been my all time favorite, but I'm looking forward to the sequel now too. Thanks for the heads up!

  4. Guess I need to read The Sky Inside first, but this sounds like it is right up my alley.
