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.
