Thunderhead (Arc of a Scythe, #2)

Neal Shusterman
Goodreads  
Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers • 2018

Rowan has gone rogue, and has taken it upon himself to put the Scythedom through a trial by fire. Literally. In the year since Winter Conclave, he has gone off-grid, and has been striking out against ...corrupt scythes—not only in MidMerica, but across the entire continent. He is a dark folk hero now—“Scythe Lucifer”—a vigilante taking down corrupt scythes in flames.Citra, now a junior scythe under Scythe Curie, sees the corruption and wants to help change it from the inside out, but is thwarted at every turn, and threatened by the “new order” scythes. Realizing she cannot do this alone—or even with the help of Scythe Curie and Faraday, she does the unthinkable, and risks being “deadish” so she can communicate with the Thunderhead—the only being on earth wise enough to solve the dire problems of a perfect world. But will it help solve those problems, or simply watch as perfection goes into decline?

Žatva smrti prekonáva sama seba

Neal Shusterman sa u nás vďaka Slovartu zjavil ako blesk z jasného neba a v záplave ďalších young adult autorov okamžite obsadil popredné miesto v rebríčku kvality a obľúbenosti. Jeho Kosec, prvý diel série Žatva smrti, sa aj u mňa zaradil medzi to najlepšie, čo v danom žánri doteraz vzniklo. Očividne si váži čitateľov aj samotné postavy, pretože obom nadelil plnohodnotný, napínavý príbeh[...]
