Revived tells the story of what might happen should an experimental drug be available to bring people back from death in certain circumstances. I've never thought about such a thing before, but Daisy has - she's died 5 times! Cat Patrick seems to be able to think up very original ideas for her books and this one is great. The situation Daisy finds herself in seems completely reasonable, but the moral implications are brought home to her when her best friend is dying of cancer. And how far should researchers go when they are working on new drugs?
Who would enjoy this? This is an absorbing and exciting story which brings up some interesting issues - people who like to do a bit of thinking with their reading will like this book.
