If you loved 'Noughts &
Crosses' as much as I did, you'll be thrilled to know Malorie Blackman expanded the story into a whole series! After the original, there's 'Knife Edge,' which dives deeper into the
Aftermath of Sephy and Callum's choices, and it's just as heart-wrenching. Then comes 'Checkmate,' where the political tension and personal struggles escalate—I couldn't put it down. 'Double Cross' wraps up the main arc, but there's also 'Crossfire,' a newer sequel set years later,
Focusing on the next generation. It feels like revisiting old friends but with
fresh drama.
Personally, 'Knife Edge' hit me hardest—the emotional stakes are insane, and Blackman doesn’t
shy away from tough themes. If you’re into dystopian worlds with real-world parallels, this series is a must-read. I’ve
reread it twice and still find new layers.
