"GHOSTS TRAVEL IN PACKS .
This is the first lesson you’re taught when you become a Striker.
You learn that Ghosts used to be human, before the Karensa Federation
strapped them down and poured dark poison down their throats,
twisting them into monstrous war beasts."
Right off the bat, 'Sky Hunter' is unlike any book readers are likely to encounter. Its unique and original concept lures readers to the edge of their seat. The descriptive of 'ghosts' quickly informs the reader that our concept of ghost is different compared to Mara. Ghosts are those humans which have been dehumanised and Mara is the only land free of the ghosts. An playful and clever allegory of the world we live in today, where truely there is no one citizen of one country and that soon we may become ghosts that become generic, not one race able to be proud of what and who they are.
Nothing less should be expected from a 'Legendary' writer such as Marie Lu.
