In the future the UN has brought back an ancient way to keep the peace. The children of world leaders are held hostage - if a war begins, they pay with their lives. Greta is the crown princess of the Panpolar Confederacy, a superpower formed of modern-day Canada. She is also a child of peace, a hostage held by the de facto ruler of the world: the great artificial intelligence, Talis. The hostages are Talis' strategy to keep the peace: If her country enters a war, Greta dies.

I wasn't sure that I was going to like this book, but quickly found myself absolutely immersed in the audiobook as I was driving long distances between my residence and my parents' residence!
The characters are enticing and you quickly find yourself rooting for all of them in what seems to be an impossible situation. There wasn't a single character I didn't like (except Tolliver Burr for clear cut reasons). If you like YA dystopian literature, you will love this one. I'd say it's similar to The Hunger Games, but it sort of marches to the beat of its own drum in an amazing way!
I will absolutely be adding this to my classroom library next school year and I'm so glad that I already have the second book sitting on my shelf :)
