Dualed

Dualed

by Elsie Chapman

Plot:

Imagine a world where everywhere is plagued by war and death, besides the city you live in. The Government of Kersh is one of the only safe havens in the country, this is because every citizen is a trained warrior. Every citizen has an alternate version of themselves that they need to kill. from the age of 12-20 the citizens train for the moment where they are assigned they have thirty-one  days   to try and kill their alternant  by any means necessary or be killed by their alternant, whoever is the successful alternate is the stronger warrior in the city of Kersh  
This is the world of West Grayer, she has been training since she was a young girl. West is an experienced fighter and gunsmith this will help her when she gets assigned, this is when The Government has 4 words for her “Kill or Be Killed”

My Thoughts:

This book is an exciting ride from start to finish. When i signed it out after reading the back of the book I knew it would be a book for me.  I really like that it puts you in the shoes of West Grayer with a first person writing style. Elsie Chapman is a very good author I especially enjoyed the way she makes you feel what the characters are feeling in certain situations and how the setting is laid out, this allows readers to get immersed in reading the text.  Throughout reading the book it reminded me of The Jason Bourne movies and the book Boy Nobody with the constant action and suspense they both have. If anyone like books from the first person and like action and suspense and want to rarely put a book down. I strongly recommend Dualed by Elsie Chapman
