Description

Rife with action and suspense, this riveting companion to the perennially popular Unwind challenges assumptions about where life begins and ends—and what it means to live.

Thanks to Connor, Lev, and Risa—and their high-profile revolt at Happy Jack Harvest Camp—people can no longer turn a blind eye to unwinding. Ridding society of troublesome teens while simltaneously providing much-needed tissues for transplant might be convenient, but its morality has finally been brought into question. However, unwinding has become big business, and there are powerful political and corporate interests that want to see it not only continue, but also expand to the unwinding of prisoners and the impoverished.

Cam is a product of unwinding; made entirely out of the parts of other unwinds, he is a teen who does not technically exist. A futuristic Frankenstein, Cam struggles with a search for identity and meaning and wonders if a rewound being can have a soul. And when the actions of a sadistic bounty hunter cause Cam’s fate to become inextricably bound with the fates of Connor, Risa, and Lev, he’ll have to question humanity itself.

    This series continues to take the reader into a not-so-distant "future" where what polarizes current society is twisted, yet not out of the realm of possibilities. A SciFi, political commentary that leaves readers wanting to know what will happen next.

    For my surprise the second book is better than the first. It feels like a roller coaster full of twists. There is more action, drama, love and sadness. Narration continues to be pristine. Can't wait for UnSouled. It's a must have!
  • He does it again.

    That was absolutely amazing. The ending was perfect. Can't wait for the third book that I suspect will be dropping in a while... But it's a must read!
  • Love this book
