He also writes screenplays for film and television for shows such as Goosebumps and Animorphs. He lives in Southern California with his four children. Follow him on Twitter: @NealShustermanAuthor 1 Neal ShustermanBook Description A true successor to The Hunger Games. Maggie Stiefvater In a perfect world what is there left to fear? A chilling and thought-provoking sci-fi novel from New York Times bestselling author Neal Shusterman. A dark gripping and witty thriller in which the only thing humanity has control over is death. In a world where disease war and crime have been eliminated the only way to die is to be randomly killed "gleaned" by professional scythes. Citra and Rowan are teenagers who have been selected to be scythes apprentices and despite wanting nothing to do with the vocation they must learn the art of killing and understand the necessity of what they do. Only one of them will be chosen as a scythes apprentice and as Citra and Rowan come up against a terrifyingly corrupt Scythedom it becomes clear that the winning apprentices first task will be to glean the loser.Editorial Review This powerful tale is guaranteed to make readers think deeply. * Publishers Weekly starred review * This first volume in an anticipated trilogy offers forbidden love mass murders cool philosophical musings and a well-developed futuristic society-plenty to guarantee interest in the planned two followups. * BCCB starred review * Shusterman starts off this series in dramatic fashion as he creates an engrossing world that pulls readers in and refuses to let them go... A truly astounding unputdownable read and a fast-paced beginning to an excellent sci-fi series. A must-have. * School Library Journal starred review * Elegant and elegiac brooding but imbued with gallows humor Shustermans dark tale thrusts realistic likeable teens into a surreal situation and raises deep philosophic questions. A thoughtful and thrilling story of life death and meaning. * Kirkus starred review * Scythe owes an obvious debt to Unwind 2007 and its sequels and this succeeds as a sort of shadow companion to Patrick Ness Chaos Walking trilogy: instead of exploring the ways in which men are monsters this deals in what happens to men when there are no monsters. When our reach does not exceed our grasp when comfort is more easily obtained than struggle when our essential humanity doesnt burn out but becomes slowly irrelevant what becomes of us? Readers will find many things in these pages. Answers to such unsettling questions will not be among them. * Booklist starred review *ISBN-10 1406379247ISBN-13 9781406379242Language EnglishNumber of Pages 448View Full Specifications SpecificationsAbout the Author Neal Shusterman is an award-winning author whose books include the New York Times bestselling Unwind series and Challenger Deep which won a National Book Award.

The Shadow and Bone Trilogy previously published as The Grisha Trilogy Shadow and Bone Siege and Storm Ruin and Rising The Six of Crows Duology Six of Crows Crooked Kingdom The Language of Thorns: Midnight Tales and Dangerous MagicEditorial Review In so many series the second book is a huge let-down. Siege and Storm? An exception. It is a squillion times better than Shadow and Bone... I adore the writing - its so lyrical so beautiful yet so modern and witty and funny. I love this blend of classic fairytale and modern day. And it always seems to leave me wanting more! And the plot was amazing too. It was just nonstop action nonstop thrills nonstop suspense and nonstop excitement. I gobbled it up falling harder in love each time. And then having my heart totally broken. Numerous times... I didnt see ninety-nine percent of the twists coming and could have just read this three-hundred-odd-paged-book in one sitting! You know if I didnt need sleep and food and stuff... -- The Book Addicted Girl * GUARDIAN TEEN BOOKS * Wow wow wow - thats all I can say. Siege and Storm only confirms that Leigh Bardugo is a must-read author for all teenage bookworms and fantasy fans! Set in a beautiful and magical fictional land the novel draws you in with its vivid imagery and unique array of characters... If you havent entered the world of Grisha yet then why on earth not?! I mean you know a novel is superb when words fail you and you just cant coherently speak anymore... right? * FEED ME BOOKS NOW * Leigh Bardugo you sure know how to involve your readers and make them an emotional wreck. Siege and Storm is an enthralling sequel that seriously ups the game and expectations of the reader. It is written so beautifully that is flows flawlessly while keeping the magic alive in the readers mind. If you want to read a fantasy series that has a truly unique world then read this series. * READ WRITE AND READ SOME MORE * I wrote a piece here gushing about why the Grisha series is so different and so special. There are many small reasons that all come together to create the awesomeness. But there are also many more that I cant even explain. Maybe it is different because it is just magic. It has the most exquisitely constructed world the best-written characters the most amazing writing and storyline. And it always always always leaves me desperate for more. It always leaves me aching foaming at the mouth for more: right now. And that perhaps is why it is so special. It is magic. It is beautiful. It is perfect. Well except for that cliffhanger. How am I meant to make it a whole year with that hanging over my head?! * THE BOOK ADDICTED GIRL * I was away on the ships and wandering through Ravka with Alina and Mal I was on the receiving end of his kisses and his annoyances. I felt the sun warm the pages whenever Alina summoned and I felt the fear when The Darkling was around. There is nothing I dont love about the world in which the Grisha trilogy is set and I cannot wait until next year to see how this series is going to conclude. * READARAPTOR * Siege and Storm carries on the fantastic plot which was so intricately carved in book one and the writing continues to be clever funny and heartbreaking all at the same time. This book will have you laughing one minute and an emotional wreck the next as Alinas powers are pushed to the limit and her relationships are tested to breaking point.

How am I meant to make it a whole year with that hanging over my head?! * THE BOOK ADDICTED GIRL * I was away on the ships and wandering through Ravka with Alina and Mal I was on the receiving end of his kisses and his annoyances. I felt the sun warm the pages whenever Alina summoned and I felt the fear when The Darkling was around. There is nothing I dont love about the world in which the Grisha trilogy is set and I cannot wait until next year to see how this series is going to conclude. * READARAPTOR * Siege and Storm carries on the fantastic plot which was so intricately carved in book one and the writing continues to be clever funny and heartbreaking all at the same time. This book will have you laughing one minute and an emotional wreck the next as Alinas powers are pushed to the limit and her relationships are tested to breaking point. I for one cannot wait for the third and final book. * BOOK CHICK CITY *ISBN-10 1510105263Language EnglishNumber of Pages 416Parental Rating 5+View Full Specifications
