Incarceron — a futuristic prison, sealed from view, where the descendants of the original prisoners live in a dark world torn by rivalry and savagery. It is a terrifying mix of high technology — a living building which pervades the novel as an ever-watchful, ever-vengeful character, and a typical medieval torture chamber — chains, great halls, dungeons. A young prisoner, Finn, has haunting visions of an earlier life, and cannot believe he was born here and has always been here. In the outer world, Claudia, daughter of the Warden of Incarceron, is trapped in her own form of prison — a futuristic world constructed beautifully to look like a past era, an imminent marriage she dreads. She knows nothing of Incarceron, except that it exists. But there comes a moment when Finn, inside Incarceron, and Claudia, outside, simultaneously find a device — a crystal key, through which they can talk to each other. – Goodreads.com

Great reads! 🙂
I really want to get my hands on Virals now, that’s the first summary I’ve seen of it, Goodreads wouldn’t pull it up for me.
Great week! I have Incarceron but alas, only one copy so can’t help you with a swap, sorry. But once I finish it I’ll probably be wishing to get my hands on Saphique!
