The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne

Product Information

Albert was nothing but a nuisance to Scarlett but became her friend. Scarlett started off as a guide to Albert and ended up becoming Albert's inspiration. A few instances of "bastard," "bloody," "damn," and "hell" and one "balls-up." Scarlett has a swear jar that she regularly adds to, often without a mention of the word said.

The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne by Jonathan Stroud | Goodreads The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne by Jonathan Stroud | Goodreads

This novel contains a fascinating world built by Stroud, where society – such as it is – is expected to conform, but our outlaws have other, bolder ideas. The multi-layered adventure, laced with humour, is led by our pair of anti-heroes on an odyssey - you won’t be able to put the book down. There is something for everyone here in this amalgamation of monsters, gunfights, and strange governmental institutions. Did you know you can flag iffy content? Adjust limits for Violence & Scariness in your kid's entertainment guide. Get started Close The characters are both likeable, they bounced off one another. Scarlett quite mouthy and opinionated whilst trying to find a way to survive in the harsh world. Browne having not seen the real outside world before was like a cat in the headlights, mesmerised and overwhelmed by everything and he needed Scarlett’s help. He was also keeping a few big secrets about why he is wanted. I love the they affect one another; Scarlett becomes more like Albert, and Albert becomes more like her.

The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne by Jonathan Stroud | Goodreads

O nouă serie de la Stroud, o nouă distopie britanică, o nouă eroină pusă pe jefuit și ucis răufăcători care luptă contra celor mai malefici dușmani și creaturi posibile. Are alături de ea un puști cam tont, slăbănog și aiurit, ce mai mult o încurcă, dar pe măsură ce citești vezi că toate trăsăturile de mai sus au un motiv anume, și surprizele pot apărea de oriunde. Ce să zic, mie mi-a plăcut, orașe pustiite, creaturi ucigașe, fel și fel de peripeții și o lume stranie, cu zone desprinde parcă din „Picnic la marginea drumului”. Recomandat ptr fanii lui Stroud și cititorii de distopii young adult.Jonathan Stroud is a master of writing characters. This book on my second read absolutely gripped me, even more than the first time. The world is vicious and fun and exciting to explore, and Stroud lets us see glimpses into it in beautiful ways. His descriptions are easy to picture, and what's really fun about the world is what he chooses to withhold from us. There's so much we don't know, so much we don't see, and it gives the world great depth; we feel like Albert Browne, who's seeing the world for the first time and is so intrigued and frightened by it all. I loved The Outlaws Scarlett and Browne. I think it was wonderfully written and the world was real enough to get inside. I felt like I was really on the adventure with Scarlett and Albert, and they were delightful characters to go on an adventure with.
