Review: Incarceron by Catherine Fisher

Incarceron by Catherine Fisher

I would describe Incarceron as a thriller-fantasy novel with cliff-hanger endings to every chapter. This story weaves around the lives of two people from very different background. Finn is an inmate at Incarceron, a prison like no other. Claudia is the daughter of the Warden. Their lives become intertwined as the result of some bizarre and unusual circumstances and they find they need each other’s help. Finn is looking to escape from Incarceron and Claudia wants to get out of her arranged marriage. What I like most about this book is that it keeps you guessing until the very end. It allows your imagination to run wild about the fate of the main characters and the true power of the prison. I found it started slow but if you can get through the first few chapters, the excitement picks up quickly it is a great read!
