Encounters by Jason Wallace
Remember Out of Shadows (bwl 60)? Tough, uncompromising writing for a young adult audience. Here is Jason Wallace's second book. We return to South Africa a few years on. The plot is driven by a real incident - the claim that aliens landed - is it true? That is not the point. The incident allows Wallace to explore relationships and events through the voices of the young people involved. Not for those looking for romance. Excellent.
