Must have the precious!ĭiscussion: Claudia has undergone a personality transplant between the time of Book One and Book Two, and it’s not a good change. So throughout the book, the glove passes back and forth as various characters snatch it from various others, shouting “My Precious!” No wait, wrong story. Somehow the glove will break down the barrier between the Prison and the Outside, allow the prisoners to escape, and do all sorts of other things we don’t know about but of which we should be very, very afraid. All of them are struggling to get the magical glove of the mysterious Sapphique, who is a possibly real or possibly just legendary being who actually escaped from the prison. The Prison Warden, as well as Finn’s oathbrother Keiro, and the girl Attia, are stuck on the Inside. In Sapphique, which takes place four months after Incarceron, Finn and Claudia are on the Outside of the Prison (part of which has now turned into a sentient being). Sapphique is actually is a bit less trippy than Incarceron until you get to the end, at which time it is evident that only by taking LSD or the equivalent will it all become clear (or you won’t care if it isn’t, so it doesn’t matter). Incarceron is a dystopian young adult novel about a prison seemingly the size of a whole world. NOTE: This review contains very minimal spoilers for Book One ( Incarceron) and no spoilers for this book.
