Author: Jeanne Duprau
Genre : Fantastic
Blurb: Doon and Lisa, two children from City of
Ember, have to save humanity which has
been buried for many years. But the box

of this city has been lost. Electricity often goes out and a new source of
energy is required urgently... Do you think Lisa and
Doon will find a way to get out of this city? What
will happen in their escape? Will they succeed in finding the light again?
“Duprau is a most engaging writer:
direct, succinct,delivering lively characters and genuine suspense, sustaining
the mystery but generous with her clues “ JAN MARK, TES
Personal opinion: this fantastic book is the funniest I’ve ever
read but it is more boring than Harry
Potter or other fantastic books. It is
the less fascinating fantastic book I’ve
ever read. I like the situation and the context. I would recommend this book to
readers who like the fantastic genre.
Level: it’s easy to read good for beginners in
English.
