Product Description:

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Amazing
Great series. Ignore the "young adult" label and read it. Or better yet, have everyone in the family read it.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great series!
This series keeps you interested with new language, exciting characters, constant action and a great plot. The themes of taking care of the earth and appreciating individuality are strong but subtle. Tally, the main character, is a typical teenager with concerns that are beyond what most current teens have to deal with, but are familiar. There are times when the books are predictable, but with satisfying results. Overall, an enjoyable read. I would love to see more about Tally and her further adventures.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great
I've never really been into YA so I was skeptical when my friend recommended it to me. However as a fan of works like 1984, Brave New World, and Farenheit 451, the utopian plotline won me over.

In short, I was glad I picked it up. I was immediately enthralled and once I got the 2nd book, I finished it in a day leaving me anxious for the 3rd release.

The Uglies trilogy is a great YA series. The utopian/govt control themes make it an intelligent cut above the rest of the YA fluff and the romantic plot in it helps keep its appeal to the average teen.

Great work!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - The Best Series I have ever read!
Scott Westerfeld's best work by far, The uglies trilogy is amazing. The series is perfect for and sci-fi or even just science enthusiast. The characters are well constructed, the plot is unpredictable, and the absolute best part is the suprisingly scientific concepts and descriptions. These books will blow your mind. I suggest purchasing Extras (Uglies) as well. To my knowledge, it is the final book in the series.
