Incarceron, by Catherine Fisher

The book "Incarceron" by Catherine Fisher is about a boy named Finn who lives in a giant prison that has been sealed from the outside world for a long time. Finn forgot how he got into the prison but is sure he was not born there because of a strange mark on his wrist. Him and his friends end up doing their best to escape the prison. On their way to freedom they face challenges and eventually reach what they think is the exit.


 The characters were well presented and the story, well told. Although at the beginning the book may be confusing because of just how different the prison is from our world, by the end it all makes sense and I was left surprised by how simple but confusing it was. It is an interesting book I'd recommend to anyone who likes science fiction and/or good books.
