Gee I enjoyed this book. I preordered it for 99 cents because I really like the Maze Runner books and Hunger Games, etc. I was absolutely not disappointed and read this at every opportunity. I thought it was for a young adult audience but I found myself engrossed in the main character Kai and everything he had to go through. It was quite shocking what he agreed to do to go in the race and the author's imagination in coming up with different scenarios for each race was fascinating. Definitelywhat a great book . I had fun with it from page one to page last fast pace great character development I cared for the characters cannot wait for book 2
Vera Brook is a neuroscientist turned science fiction & fantasy writer. Her latest novel is GHOST RUNNER, book 3 in the Sand Runner series, coming out in April 2020. She is also a bookworm, and perpetually torn between reading books and writing them.
The action and adrenaline of this story were consistent, and the backstory was decently developed. The language and violence makes it applicable to an older YA audience, but it was nice to read a title in the genre that bring something fresh as it tips its hat to other works (i.e., The Hunger Games & The Maze Runner).
If you enjoyed The Hunger Games or The Maze Runner you'll likely enjoy this story set in a similarly dystopian world. A story that kept me wanting to turn the pages in a world that I found fascinating.

I am curious to learn more about the world that Kai and
I received this book from Goodreads. Sand Runner immediately made me think of The Maze Runner . I was half afraid that this book would be a cheap ripoff of James Dashner's best seller.I was wrong. I was so, so wrong.Sand Runner is not a cheap imitation of The Maze Runner. Sand Runner is a book of it's own.Sand Runner is in a league of it's own. This book is funny, imaginative, well written, heartfelt, suspenseful, creative, and so much fun to read. It was so easy to submerge myself into this
Take a chance!!!When I see, "For fans of the Hunger Games and the Maze Runner series," I don't believe the book they are comparing to those others will stand up to it. Boy o boy was I wrong. I absolutely love the Maze Runner series! And I really enjoyed the Hunger Games. So when I finally took a chance and read Sand Runner, I was kicking myself for taking so long to get to it!You have the introduction of the characters. You learn a little about them, and then the race happens. It's a very well
