“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?

"OMG! SO GOOD! I can't believe it kept up the momentum of the first book. This book didn't raise my heart rate like Sycthe, but I could not put this down. I'm talking reading until 3 am knowing I have to get up in the morning can't put down. I loved Greyson's journey connecting the rest of the world to the main story. I can't wait to start the third book, RIGHT NOW!"

"I hadn't realized just how great the romance aspect of this series is until this book. (By that I mean there is little to zero romance!!!) The ending of this book was quite shocking and upsetting to me. I had a feeling what might have been coming but I pretended like it wouldn't happen and was just my imagination. This series is completely different than any other YA dystopian series I have ever read."
"I enjoyed this book start to finish, but this book has an exciting, crazy, page-turning ending, so make sure you have the third and final book on hand! "
