Ann Aguirre's thrilling young adult novel Enclave is the story of two young people in an apocalyptic world--facing dangers, and feelings, unlike any they've ever known. New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20's. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters--or Freaks--who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings. And when Deuce and Fade are exiled from the enclave, the girl born in darkness must survive in daylight--guided by Fade's long-ago memories--in the ruins of a city whose population has dwindled to a few dangerous gangs.

"WOW I'm really impressed with this book! It was so creepy and fast paced! Even though it was a relatively short book, it managed to feel much longer because so much was happenning but it was the perfect length. AHH I can't belive I have to wait a whole year until the next one! " — Chelsea (5 out of 5 stars)

“Dark and thrilling, fast-paced and intense…A very engaging read.”
“Emily Bauer effectively voices the pride and fear that mingle in Deuce as she and her enigmatic partner, Fade, carry out their job of protecting and feeding their clan.
Ann Aguirre's dystopian novel, set after war and plague destroyed New York City and most of civilization relocated to enclaves underground, becomes all the more convincing through Emily Bauer's deliberate narration…Bauer's voice perfectly reflects [Deuce's] amazement as she encounters things like canned food and flush toilets for the first time.
I popped the first CD into my car's stereo and was immediately hooked…Ms. Bauer reads the tale with all the tension and anticipation that is Deuce's world…This is the type of story that lends itself well to the audiobook format. It's a dark tale, and listening to Ms. Bauer describe the world of the enclave and the tunnels, the listener can close their eyes…and totally picture everything being described.
I loved [Emily Bauer's] voice and her pace and felt entranced while listening. I believe that if I had read it, I wouldn't have enjoyed it quite so much.
[Enclave] is a young adult dystopian novel and has been compared to the hit series The Hunger Games. To say we're excited is a major understatement…
In her first young adult novel, Aguirre (the Sirantha Jax series) has created a gritty and highly competent heroine, an equally deadly sidekick/love interest, and a fascinating if unpleasant civilization. This series is likely to hold considerable appeal for fans of The Hunger Games.
Enclave is dark and thrilling, fast-paced and intense. With some graphic and gross imagery and a hard look at a post-apocalyptic world, Aguirre has taken themes from Scott Westerfeld and an assortment of zombie literature and created something that is very much her own -- and a very engaging read.
This well-paced zombie-esque adventure in an urban wasteland will keep fans happy.
Aguirre's young adult debut is a gripping survival story set in an apocalyptic future. . . This is a tense, action-packed dystopia with intriguingly gray characters. . .
Deuce's passion for life, even in her bleakest moments, is contagious, and that passion exemplifies the nebulous force that has driven all of these individuals to persist in the face of awful options.
" Ugh...distraught that it is over. "
" Read as a digital arc, but I've had this baby on preorder for months. Razorland delivers as a trilogy. It's perfect. Just buy it. Seriously. "
" This series blew my expectations out of the water. Could not put it down even to sleep, read the first two in two days. Read it if you like dystopian novels "
" I have no words for how amazing this book is. Guys, you really have something to look forward to here. "
" This will satisfy younger fans of dystopian fiction, but I would have enjoyed it more if it didn't bring to mind so many other more inventive novels (Hunger Games, City of Ember, The Giver). "
" Reminiscent of "The Hunger Games," "The Host," "The Maze Runner," and Scott Westerfeld's "Uglies" series. If you like books about teens surviving in a dystopian world, you'll love this one. "
" For fans of the Hunger Games' Katniss and of Graceling's Katsa. "
" Really liked it similar to hunger games and divergent. "
