Sapphique (Incarceron #2)

Sapphique is the second Incarceron novel by Catherine Fisher. Incarceron is a prison where - years ago - those in power exiled all criminals. Once the prison was sealed no one could leave again.

Except legend has it that one man did Escape. His name was Sapphique. He traveled all of the wings of the prison and challenge Incarceron (the artificial intelligence that oversees the prison) to a battle of wits for his freedom.

All in the prison know of Sapphique and all are looking to Escape. Recently someone did Escape. Finn is now Outside in the realm. Some believe he is the prince whose death was staged when he was younger. Now he must get his memory back and save not only the realm but those trapped inside of Incarceron.

Fisher has created a dark and fascinating world that mixes advanced technology with the protocols of the middle ages. This series is a must read for any fantasy readers.

Sapphique will be available in December 2010.
