What the hell! Why this book covers in dust, left at my chubby tbr for so long!

When I saw IMDb page of the movie adaptation, I realized moviemakers massacred another masterpiece by turning it into a meaningless adaptation. ( I love Tom Holland! But not every project he’s involved is box office hit) For paying my respects, I scanned my tbr and finally found the first book of the series and here I am!

This book has unique and captivating plot with impeccably portrayed main character. Tom’s genuineness, loyalty make you root for him. Slow burn start of the book shouldn’t fool you. After the introductions to the characters and the descriptions of the world they are living, full action packed and exciting chapters will keep you in your toes and you never want to let go of this book!

Here’s quick summary of plot:

There’s only one boy is surviving at an alien planet that is colonized by humans, living with men’s world.

Todd Hewitt’s the boy’s name and Prentisstown is the name of the town that is controlled by Noise, a gem released during war gives power to the men to hear each other’s voices, intentions from miles away.

Todd doesn’t know any other works exist but he cannot live in this one that controlled by vengeful men. When he decides to live the town, he realizes he might represent something valuable because townies have no intention to let him go!
