"A vivid and sure-footed, if predictable, piece of social commentary."
"Right from page one, I found that Golden Dreg Boy by D.K. Dailey was a fun read...It was interesting to see how Kade had to adjust his attitude and beliefs after finding out the truth about his heritage."
"A deeply built slice of dystopian fiction. Not only is it a wild piece of escapist fiction, but it also hits home as a powerful allegory, and a dire warning. The action-packed world laid out in this series' opening installment has a wealth of potential, benefiting from authentic dialogue, relatable characters, and unexpected descriptions that make a reader sit up and take notice. With just enough youthful romance to balance out the brewing attitudes of rebellion, Golden Dreg Boy is well-balanced, entertaining, and thought-provoking."
