That computer in your head is a weapon, but it is a double-edged sword. - page 103 "War evolves over time. It's better to say, 'No one kills in this war yet.'" - page 105 "People are expendable. Period. The only difference between the nineteen fifties and today is that there are billions more of...
I really enjoyed this book. Its more or less about the near future where intergalactic war has ravaged the world. Scared of ruining the earth battles are not fought in space by modified humans called Solar combatants. Tom is just an ordinary kid with a dad with a gambling addiction who opposis the g...
12/31/14I decided to re-read Insignia before starting on the second and third books. I'm glad I did--it turns out I'd forgotten a lot more about the story than I remembered. My first review from a couple of years ago still stands. I'll just add a few additional thoughts. The science fiction is hea...
ES-PEC-TA-CU-LARLei un solo libro, pero me atrevo a decir que ya ocupa el mismo puesto que Maze Runner y Los juegos del hambre en mi mente :)QUE LIBRO GENIAL!
I decided to delve into this one for a read-along hosted by Epic Reads (*book shimmy*) and it turned out be a seriously good idea! When someone says sci-fi adventure I don’t really picture anything but now I think I’m going to have Insignia as a good to mental image. Some have likened this to Ender’...
Full review also posted here on TotalTeenFictionThis book had been glaring at me from the library shelves for a while and I knew it wouldn't be long before I caved and checked it out! Insignia follows Tom as he finds himself recruited to Washington to take place in the military training academy, whe...
Insignia truly brought out my inner geek. A mish-mash of sci-fi, fantasy, dystopian, and government, Insignia may seem quite daunting: 444 pages is definitely NOT something you want to joke about. But since it was so fun to read, it went by in a flash. The only thing that reminded me of its sheer s...
*Genre* Young Adult, Science Fiction*Rating* 3.5-4*Full Review Shortly*I ended up liking this book a lot. I liked the science behind the story. I liked the whole idea of wars behind fought in space rather than on land where it devastates everything and everyone. I liked 14 Year old Tom Raines the ma...
Total Science Love.I'm not a fan of Science Fiction. I've always been a contemporary nerd or in same cases a total fantasy junkie. I'll be honest, the last time I read a book from a guy's perspective in the science fiction genre was...when I was in middle school. And even then I hadn't liked what I ...
More of my reviews at Secrets of Lost Words.Oh my goodness, just WOW... Insignia was AMAZING. This one is absolutely one of my favorites now.Insignia by S. J. Kincaid is definitely NOT a normal YA book. It doesn't have much romance in it but don't worry.. the action will keep you busy. What I really...
