Overview

Noir was a mega-city plagued by a sun blocking mass called Dry Clouds that had mysteriously appeared three decades earlier. The Dry Clouds covered half the planet and forced those living under them to exist in endless night.

Kim discovered someone close to her had been murdered. Is Kat the key to finding out who did it? Or will her association with Kat only cause her more grief?

    A dark look at our future...

    I found this book very interesting in its view of our possible future. This world has legalized the assassin profession and half the world lives under clouds that makes the world always dark. An interesting backdrop for the story. I really like the Un-Men that were created for this story.

    A very good sci-fi series...

    I started reading this series and find I like it. The cover wasn't very attractive with the gray colors. Aside from that, I like the two main characters one being an assassin called a Life Closer. Shades of Gray takes the reader through a world where giant clouds called Dry Clouds keep part of the planet in unending darkness. There is plenty of action and mystery for me to want more.
