Reading Fearless was (for me) a lot like revisiting 1984 by George Orwell, but instead of the unremitting bleakness that ran through that novel this holds a message of hope.

Little Fearless is a courageous and likeable heroine who will gain the readers pity, respect and admiration. She epitomises all that is good in humanity in her battle against oppression and desire for freedom. The lessons are subtly woven into the story as are the warnings against totalitarianism and xenophobia.

Tim Lott is an excellent writer and his descriptions and characters are beautifully written. Fearless is a gripping and thought-provoking book about belief in humanity and will hopefully have a followup.

I give it eight out of ten on my personal enjoyment scale and recommend it most highly!
