Welcome to the September CSFF Blog Tour!
The book this month is Jill Williamson's Rebels, the third
and final book in her The Safe Lands series.
After Safe Land enforcers take the Glenrock families as Captives, Levi, Mason, and Omar find
themselves snared behind a façade of lies and tricks that has kept the people
of the Safe Lands bedazzled for generations. When the three brothers attempt to
rescue their families from the Safe Land's harem (also known as the Surrogacy
Center), they end up as Outcasts, hiding
from the enforcers and working with a group of dissidents to rescue friends who
don’t always want to be rescued.
Now, as Rebels themselves,
they might have the chance to find the truth behind the lies. The trick is
finding the right help, especially with pregnancies, unhappy family members,
and old grudges getting in the way.
This third book kept the suspense going so long I was beginning
to wonder whether Rebels really was
the last book in the series—until the climax hit with a bit of a crash.
With the series wrapped up, I liked how the characters, especially
Omar, changed and grew into their new roles. The series as a whole is a little
more complicated to describe—I do like the story, but a few things stuck out to
me for one reason or another. More on that in my review tomorrow, though.
For now, I happen to have a second copy of Rebels which came when I received my
review copy for this tour. I'm hosting a Rafflecopter giveaway to find this
second copy a home. You can enter the giveaway by leaving a comment here or on my review tomorrow. Even better, you can get a second entry by
linking to your favorite post from one of the other tour participants--I'm
looking hearing about the posts you like and why.

Good points -- looking forward to reading your review!
I like Omar too. :-)
Thanks, both of you, for stopping by! Carol--I liked the review you posted, nice and succinct, but a very good summary of the story.
