I am delighted to share my review today of Rebel by Emma Ellis<\/strong>. This is the 3rd and final book in The Eyes Forward<\/strong> series and I have read them one after the other after coming across them on Kindle Unlimited. <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

This is an amazing trilogy and one for fans of dark, psychological, dystopian thrillers. <\/p>\n

\"\"\/<\/figure>\n

Iris was born twenty-eight years ago during the unrest, when every birth required a life to be sacrificed. Since then, fertile women\u2019s rights have been curtailed in further attempts to reduce the population. Deemed as a dangerous nuisance, restrictions are in place on where fertile women can work and socialise, as well as what internet access they are allowed.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Iris has been a good citizen and has followed every rule imposed upon her. But when new and even more sinister methods to reduce the population are enforced, Iris can\u2019t accept it any more.<\/p>\n

Tired of being complacent, Iris\u2019s anger drives her to action, and she is not alone.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to rebel.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Readers should be aware that Rebel is more violent than the previous two books and contains references to drug use.<\/em><\/p>\n

MY REVIEW<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is the final book in this The Eyes Forward trilogy and I have read each of the books one after the other. At the time of reading these were available on Kindle Unlimited.<\/p>\n

Being the third book, I will state that these really should be read in order. The first two give two different aspects of life in the county of Berkshire, while the third book brings both books together uniting the past with the present and finally bringing the answers I have been looking for. When I thought the author could not get darker with her plots, I was wrong. Using the nature of greed and status the author uses her characters to show the extremes that can be attained in a dictatorial and patriarchal style of life.<\/p>\n

After years of being told what to do, trying to increase your points to be allowed to eat, drink and access certain basics in life such as being served in a caf\u00e9 or restaurant, being allowed in a shop or living in an area that has running water and electricity. The world is overpopulated and there have been plans in the past to help reduce the population there is another plan in this book.<\/p>\n

Characters from the first and second books have been brought together, some more amicably than others. There is tension, fear, and suffering and there is a warning that comes with this book in the synopsis. The previous books have been dark and this one is the same but different topics are brought into this story. I have mentioned in the other books that the themes are in keeping with the storyline and again this is the same. Human nature is not nice when it comes down to the survival of the fittest, the strongest or those with the most wealth. If you don\u2019t believe me just take a look at the news!<\/p>\n

This is a dystopian story that is dark, and serious, and has elements found in books such as 1984 and The Handmaid\u2019s Tale. It is violent and there is death throughout the psychological idea of being brainwashed is rife. It is part of the story. The author takes her descriptions far enough to get the imagery of what is happening to the reader and make them aware of the effects of living in a social system as her characters do.<\/p>\n

If you are a fan of dark fiction, dystopian and thriller novels than this is a trilogy that might well interest you. Each book has been a fabulous if unsettling journey and one that I have been addicted to since I read the first book. It is a book and trilogy that I would definitely recommend.<\/p>\n
