Everything is about surviving one day to the next for these characters and Exy is their release and the one thing that keeps them together. I would definitely say to check out what trigger warnings are in this story before reading it, because this book definitely touches on a lot of things. There’s drugs, there’s partying, and there’s even talk of implied abuse in this story. There’s enough to carry the story from one page to the next. It seems like there will be later, but the story doesn’t need it here. The characters are so dynamic and their problems and strange friendships leap off the page. “It’s not the world that’s cruel,” Neil said.

His high school coach sees his potential and submits his video to a college sports team that acts as sort of a halfway home for kids with nowhere else to go. “Neil” is a fake identity and when unfortunate circumstances leaves him to fend for himself, he picks up a sport he’s always loved, Exy, in a town in the middle of nowhere, trying to blend in. The thing about Neil is that he comes from a very damaged background and has spent the past few years on the run across the United States with his mother. The story is told from the perspective of a boy named Neil Josten. Everything in this story moves from one thing to the next, and there’s this growing sense of dread that creeps up on you wondering what’s going to happen next. More specifically, a game called Exy, a more violent form of Lacrosse created for this story. This book does, in a way, revolve around sports. But is the story wildly fun to read? ABSOLUTELY. If you’re familiar with NCAA rules, this might be a stretch to read. The Foxhole Court is an insanely addicting, exhilarating story by Nora Sakavic.

#THE FOXHOLE COURT NORA SAKAVIC SERIES#
I just realized I never put one of my favorite series onto my blog, so I’ll be reposting my reviews for The Foxhole Court books, otherwise known as All for the Game series, this weekend! Maybe he’s finally found someone and something worth fighting for. Neil has survived the last eight years by running.

One of Neil’s new teammates is a friend from his old life, and Neil can’t walk away from him a second time. His lies will hold up only so long under this kind of scrutiny and the truth will get him killed.īut Neil’s not the only one with secrets on the team. The team is high profile and he doesn’t need sports crews broadcasting pictures of his face around the nation. Signing a contract with the PSU Foxes is the last thing a guy like Neil should do. He’s short, he’s fast, he’s got a ton of potential-and he’s the runaway son of the murderous crime lord known as The Butcher. Neil Josten is the newest addition to the Palmetto State University Exy team.
