Today's post is in celebration of the release of the third book in The Soterion trilogy by Stewart Ross: The Salvation Project. If you are a fan of YA and dystopian then read on!
Does the Soterion hold the key to saving civilization?
In a post-apocalyptic world where no-one lives beyond their teenage years, the mysterious Roxanne arrives in Cyrus’s village, fleeing the barbaric Zeds. She claims to be on a mission that can save them all, but can she be trusted? Cyrus joins her in her quest for the legendary Soterion, but the Zeds are determined to get there first.
The Salvation Project
Summary:
Humanity’s hope of salvation lies within a single
laptop…
A mutation in human DNA means
no one lives beyond nineteen. Scientists working to reverse this pandemic died
before their Salvation Project was complete, leaving behind the results of
their research in a sealed vault – the Soterion.
122 years have passed. The
civilisation of the ‘Long Dead’ is almost forgotten, the Soterion has been
burned to ashes, and communities of Constants are tormented by brutal tribes of
Zeds. Cyrus, Miouda and Sammy flee their burning city with a laptop rescued
from the inferno. They believe it contains the key to the Salvation Project.
But its batteries are dead, there is no electricity to power it, and murderous
Zeds will stop at nothing to get it back…

My thoughts...
This intriguing trilogy puts you into a scary future world where there are no adults and life is short. Youngsters have to adapt quickly and work with what they've got as they fight to stay alive. The first book starts by throwing you straight into the action and it stays at that fast pace throughout. One of my favourite characters was Roxanne, a resourceful and strong character, and although I would perhaps have liked a little more depth I enjoyed reading about her story.
I also loved the idea of the Soterion- a place adults from the past had left all the books and knowledge for future generations in the hope the could overcome the virus and rebuild humanity. As with all dystopian books I've read I would really not want to live in this almost medieval like world- the idea of a death week in your final teenage years sounds terrifying but is also a very imaginative idea!
