Rarely predictable and always engaging. This is in part due to Fox\'s physical disability, an almost unheard-of trait in dystopian protagonists. . . . [Fox] firmly establishes herself as the cane-wielding menace disabled readers deserve to see.

School Library Journal (starred review)

Kirkus Reviews

In the brutal, unforgiving world of Climate of Chaos, Fox LaRosa fights for her own survival, her sister\'s freedom, and above all else, the elusive truth. Newbould writes courageously about resilience and injustice, and the love it takes to make it out alive.
Jen St. Jude, author of If Tomorrow Doesn\'t Come
