Morgan Stockhour knows getting too close to the edge of Internment, the floating city in the clouds where she lives, can lead to madness. Even though her older brother, Lex, was a Jumper, Morgan vows never to end up like him. If she ever wonders about the ground, and why it is forbidden, she takes solace in her best friend, Pen, and in Basil, the boy she's engaged to marry. Then a murder, the first in a generation, rocks the city. With whispers swirling and fear on the wind, Morgan can no longer stop herself from investigating, especially once she meets Judas.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 10
The city is falling out of the sky. Morgan always thought it was just a saying. A metaphor. The words of the dying. But as they look up at the floating island that was their home, Pen and Morgan make a horrible discovery - Internment is sinking. And it's all Morgan's fault. Corrupted from the inside by one terrible king and assailed from the outside for precious resources by another, Internment could be destroyed because Morgan couldn't keep a secret.

Lauren DeStefano’s Wither was called a “thought-provoking debut, reminiscent of The Handmaid’s Tale” by Kirkus Reviews. Its chilling follow-up, Fever, continues 16-year-old Rhine’s tale - set in a dark future in which men and women die by age 25, and young girls are sold into marriage to keep the population growing. Rhine has finally escaped her marriage. But what hope can the outside world offer when death looms ever closer?

Opportunity arrives in the form of her deceptive twin sister, Taryn, whose mortal life is in peril.

Publisher's Summary
Danger descends in the second book of The Internment Chronicles, from the New York Times best-selling author of The Chemical Garden trilogy.
After escaping Internment, Morgan and her fellow fugitives land on the ground to finally learn about the world beneath their floating island home. The ground is a strange place where water falls from the sky as snow, and people watch moving pictures and visit speakeasies. A place where families can have as many children as they want, their dead are buried in vast gardens of bodies, and Internment is the feature of an amusement park. It is also a land at war.
Everyone who fled Internment had their own reasons to escape their corrupt haven, but now they're caught under the watchful eye of another king who wants to dominate his world. They may have made it to the ground, but have they dragged Internment with them?

Much better than the Chemical Garden series
If you could sum up Burning Kingdoms in three words, what would they be?
Light, easy and a pleasant read
What does Laura Knight Keating bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?
Her voice goes well with Morgan's character.
Any additional comments?
I love Laura Knight Keating's voice. It is a very nice voice for audible books, HOWEVER, I don't know what it is about her recordings but it sounds like she has a permanent case of cotton mouth. Either that or she's forever unwrapping a candy while recording. It's really strange and one of those underlining sounds that tend to irk you more and more as the recordings progress. I'm hoping it is just this recording session but we'll find out with the last book.....
