Synopsis"Intelligent and entertaining." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) "Even better than the first book." -- School Library Journal (starred review) Rowan and Citra take opposite stances on the morality of the Scythedom, putting them at odds, in the chilling sequel to the Printz Honor Book Scythe from New York Times bestseller Neal Shusterman, author of the Unwind dystology. Humans learn from their mistakes. I cannot. I make no mistakes. The Thunderhead is the perfect ruler of a perfect world, but it has no control over the scythedom. A year has passed since Rowan had gone off grid. Since then, he has become an urban legend, a vigilante snuffing out corrupt scythes in a trial by fire. His story is told in whispers across the continent. As Scythe Anastasia, Citra gleans with compassion and openly challenges the ideals of the "new order." But when her life is threatened and her methods questioned, it becomes clear that not everyone is open to the change. Old foes and new enemies converge, and as corruption within the Scythedom spreads, Rowan and Citra begin to lose hope. Will the Thunderhead intervene? Or will it simply watch as this perfect world begins to unravel?

  • The story was worth it.

    The book itself was kinda beat up and the pages were folded to the point I can't straighten them out, it's a little frustrating. The book said it was in "good" condition however, I would say it was just okay. I will definitely have to repurchase later on somewhere else for my collection . The story itself is worth reading... I couldn't put it down. I had it read in two days.

  • Shusterman does it again.

    Fantastic book. High interest for teenagers and adults. My students who start this series get super excited to finish it all.
