7/7/2023 0 Comments City of Savages by Lee Kelly![]() ![]() Fast forward twenty years and the greatest city in the world is hardly even remembered as such by those who were lucky enough to not only survive but still live in the ruins of the once great metropolis. The Red Allies, comprised of Americas enemies take over the once great city after winning the third and possibly final world war. Despite its actual size, it is the most densely populated city in the United States and after World War three, it becomes the perfect place for the Red Allies to establish their Prisoner of War camp. The island of Manhattan, New York City or just the city, as New Yorkers call it, has a length of 13.4 miles and a width of 2.3 miles at its widest point. The city ate us alive” These eleven words written across the beautifully grim cover of Lee Kelly’ stand alone dystopian young adult novel “City of Savages” sets the tone for one of, in my opinion, 2015s best young adult one offs. ![]()
