Description

In this gripping sequel to All Rights Reserved, Speth Jime has freed her home of Portland from the oppressive system that forced everyone to pay for every word they spoke. Now she will discover the cost of that freedom, and the devastating secrets of the world beyond her dome.

On the day she went silent, Speth never meant for anyone to follow her lead—or to start a rebellion of Silents. But after taking down the tyrant Silas Rog and freeing the city from his grasp, everyone is looking to Speth for answers she doesn’t have. All she wants is to find her parents, who are shackled to a lifetime of servitude in exchange for a debt they can never repay. But how can Speth leave her friends to fend for themselves when she’s the reason their city is in chaos?

When the government threatens to restore the WiFi and take back the city, Speth is forced to flee with a ragtag group of friends by her side. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey outside the dome they’ve lived in their entire lives, in search of a better future. Along the way, Speth will discover the shattering truth about their world…and the role she’ll need to play to save it.

PRAISE FOR ALL RIGHTS RESERVED

“A chilling, unnerving, and timely debut novel about what it means to speak out, even in silence.”
—Katharine McGee, New York Times bestselling author of The Thousandth Floor

“All Rights Reserved is both deeply troubling and utterly captivating; a must read for fans of the dystopic, and more specifically of M.T. Anderson's Feed.”
—Siân Gaetano, children's and YA editor, Shelf Awareness

“This is actual, proper social and political criticism, folks.... Katsoulis' exploration of poverty and the crushing, inescapable weight of debt felt very, very real. I also really liked that this is (mostly) a much less action-packed revolution than, say, Katniss'. This book is (mostly) about silent, peaceful protest, and I found the sections of the novel where Speth's understated-ha!-heroism inspires others to action incredibly moving.”
—Anna Kaufman, DIESEL: A Bookstore (Los Angeles, CA)

“Freedom of speech is one of our most prized rights in the United States, and Gregory Katsoulis has created a brand new world where that freedom is removed in a new and frightening way.... This compelling new dystopia is worth spending time to read.”
—Laura Delaney, Rediscovered Books (Boise, ID)

“In this richly-imagined novel, Gregory Katsoulis explores ideas of free speech and the consequences of intellectual property law through characters that are sympathetic, tough, and thoroughly believable. All Rights Reserved is an excellent a sci-fi thriller (with some of the best world-building I've seen in ages) with a great sense of humor and a political conscience. For anyone who feels the need for a little bit of revolution in their fiction, this book is just the thing.”
—Annie Farrell, Labyrinth Books (Princeton, NJ)

“[An] inventive dystopian sci-fi debut... Between the clever premise and the protagonist’s stand against a repressive society, Katsoulis’s work is timely and will appeal to fans of Dan Wells’s Bluescreen, M.T. Anderson’s Feed, Cecelia Ahern’s Flawed, or Scott Westerfeld’s 'Uglies.'”
School Library Journal

“Fast-paced action sequences provide a welcome balance...and the flashes of a freer history...are effectively chilling. A fresh and detailed dystopian tale that will capture and make demands upon the attention of its readers, as the genre should.”
Kirkus Reviews

“By the end of this first book, readers will be thinking about every word they speak, knowing, as Speth does, that ‘words matter.’”
Booklist

“Katsoulis explores the implications of this system with all the bleak panache of an episode of ‘Black Mirror’…Katsoulis remains deeply invested in his protagonist’s emotional journey.”
BookPage

"Provocative."
Kirkus Reviews

"A definite must for fans of the previous volume and a much-needed reminder that words really do matter" —School Library Journal
