Product description

“A true successor to The Hunger Games” Maggie Stiefvater, bestselling author of Shiver and The Raven Boys.

A Time Magazine Best YA Book of All Time

In the not-too-distant future, humans have cured hunger, disease, war, crime – even death. Now scythes are the only ones who can end a life – and they are commanded to do so to keep the size of the population under control.

Citra and Rowan are both chosen to be apprentices to a scythe – something neither of them wants. Forced together, they must perfect the skill of taking a life, competing against each other for just one scythe position. But then it becomes clear that the winning apprentice’s first task will be to kill the loser . . .

The first book in the globally bestselling, award-winning series for fans of Suzanne Collins, Pierce Brown and Marie Lu.

    Scythe

    I am terrible with paying attention to anything I'm reading but this book kept me at the edge of my seat the entire time, the author really fleshed out all of the characters making me cry and laugh with them on almost every page. They created a new world that I can't stop thinking about, they left little Easter eggs along the way that made me turn back again and again to past pages just to relive it with a new perspective.
