“I enjoyed Phantom Universe very much, but wow is there a lot to absorb. This poor girl is kidnapped, beaten, forced into slavery, finds out she’s being hunted by people she’s never even heard of, finds herself 200 years into the future without a clue of how with all sorts of new technology and facts to learn, finds out she’s now an Outlander (someone from the past who showed up in the future and are now considered the enemy and quarantined in a prison of sorts), finds an unlikely group of friends who do whatever it takes to protect her, all the while on the run from a society who is hunting her down to kill her. And yet, there’s MORE, so much more.” – Literary Escapism



















I loved both the plot and Laura’s writing style. She presented the events by gradually revealing details that gave enough suspense and curiosity to eagerly proceed with the reading. I can honestly say that I took my time to read it because I wished to savor each moment of this amazing world.
I really loved the way the book ended: it was unexpected and it left open new possibilities for the following installments which I am looking forward to read.
I was not a particular fan of sci-fi/dystopian stories but this one was really worth reading and it enticed me so much that gave me an appreciation for this kind of novels.
