Good beginning to a new YA scifi series. I liked the three siblings and their brother/sister banter was believable. After their freepost is destroyed and they are split apart from their parents, they decide to go to the city to see if they have been taken by the new rulers of the planet (robotic creatures created by man) to be reeducated. A light, entertaining read.
A fun sci-fi romp for middle grade readers. It has that dystopian element as well but I liked the focus on future technology and the "robot society". It reminded me of the robots taking over in the Terminator movies. Wide open for a sequel I'd like to read!

Sci-fi is not a genre that I typically gravitate to, however I really enjoyed this book. Great cast of characters, with an ending that was appropriate, this could be a stand alone story or.....maybe there is more to come.
