Xpresso Presents The Divided Worlds By Imran Siddiq Blog Tour Stop


Divided Worlds Series by Imran Siddiq
Genre: YA Sci-Fi

Blurb for book 1 Disconnect:

Zachary, a 16-year old Underworlder digs in waste to find anything worth bartering. That is the rule of scavenging.

When he discovers footage of an Overworld girl, Rosa, he’s intrigued by her sorrow and breaks the rule.

That decision changes his life, and he will suffer for it.

Zachary must overcome worthlessness, prejudice, and not let a twisted lie devour the new reason that he survives; Rosa.

In space, love had boundaries.

My Review

5 of 5 Disconnect

Disconnect is a great book. I have to say that this is not my normal reading genre but I decided to step out the box and read it because I loved the cover. I am so glad I decided to think out side the box and read this because it had some very intriguing ideas and two worlds that collided that made things complicated. I love when authors can pull of the creating two worlds and having two sets of rules and then meshing them slowly into one another. It is a breath of fresh air for a reader to experience that.

Zachary is not your average 16 year old. Zachary lives in the underworld where he receives everything from the overworld. Everything from food to the air that he breaths comes from the Overworld where the rich and elite live. One day he sees a girl Rosa who is in the Overworld looking sad and he just has to find out why. Not realizing what it is he wants Zachary takes a chance and talks to Rosa. As they build this friendship that should not be the two of them start to fall for each other. But as Zachary knows all to well he can't have a relationship with her because she is off limits. The Underworld do not date the Overworld. It is not allowed be the two classes shall never merge together.

As their friendship grows and blossoms into more Zachary discovers that Rosa's father is up to no good and he has set something in motion that could destroy the Underworld. With everything on the line Zachary discovers a secret that might destory a few people close to him and he has to decide what to do. Should he tell Rosa? Should he fight Rosa's fathers plans? Should he tell the Underworld what is going on? So many decisions and so little time. What will Zachary do......... 

Blurb for Book 2 Disassemble:

Zachary is a scavenger, and he’ll do anything to survive. With Rosa by his side, nothing will break him.

After the Galilei Research Base is plunged into darkness, an unexpected threat emerges.

Where Zachary was the hero before, he will become the enemy.

It’s not just about surviving anymore. It’s about saving everyone before they destroy one another, especially Rosa.

My Review

5 of 5 Disassemble

In Disassemble we continue on with Zach and Rosa's story. Zach has come from so far but there is still more to be done. Zach is a scavenger and he will do anything to survive. Zach and Rosa are recovering from injuries they suffered. They realize now that they have a lot to learn and a lot to do in order to save themselves as well as others. They know that The Galilei Research Base is in darkness and that a new threat has emerged alive and well and plotting against everyone.

So when Zach finds out that the enemy is none other than The General Masim Sukolov he is a little weary. What Zach did not know was that the General had some serious plans set in motion and one of them was to out Zach as the enemy and have him taken out. With all of this new information and new enemies Zach and Rosa will face separation and deaths. 

What is Zach going to do? Will he be able to survive this latest attack? Is the general going to kill him? All these questions are in the forefront of Zach's mind but he has to decide what he will do and when he will do it and who he can trust. Because at the end of the day some people can be trusted and others can't.

Blurb for Book 3 Disrupt:

Everything that Zachary lived for has changed. There are no rewards to come from scavenging. Just memories. But even they are not enough to remove thoughts of a worthless life.

In the midst of death, a purpose to live appears.

It wills Zachary to break the divide that has destroyed many.

This fight will be on his terms.
