SynopsisTwo teens must learn the "art of killing" in this Printz Honor-winning book, the first in a chilling new series from Neal Shusterman, author of the New York Times bestselling Unwind dystology. A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: humanity has conquered all those things, and has even conquered death. Now Scythes are the only ones who can end life--and they are commanded to do so, in order to keep the size of the population under control. Citra and Rowan are chosen to apprentice to a scythe--a role that neither wants. These teens must master the "art" of taking life, knowing that the consequence of failure could mean losing their own. Scythe is the first novel of a thrilling new series by National Book Award-winning author Neal Shusterman in which Citra and Rowan learn that a perfect world comes only with a heavy price.

  • You've never read anything like this story line and it is great!

    Love this book very mush as did my husband. Great writing, festinating story line. I ended up buying the next two books of the series and wanted to read more from this author. Do't be deterred by reviews that suggest this author is a writer for younger audiences. It is a series that is very enjoyable for adult readers.
