But when innocent lives begin to get caught in the middle of his quest for vengeance, Samud will have to decide between using his new fortune for the good of the people or to pursue the revenge he so desperately desires.

I really enjoyed this futuristic reimagining of the classic Dumas book, Count of Monte Cristo. There have been so many adaptations of the original work, it was great to see quite a few new versions of characters and even some of the major plot points. Without reading this as an adaptation, it is also a great story of revolution rather than revenge. I do not think the characters are very deeply developed, but the action and fast-paced plot do keep the reader interested. I am okay with my middle grade kids reading this, except for some brutal violence, so it is right on the border with YA.

A modern update to a classic tale that never feels dated and reminds me of an excellent Star Wars-esque story. Would hand to fans of sci-fi teen and older.
