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.

He is a dark folk hero now-“Scythe Lucifer”-a vigilante taking down corrupt scythes in flames.Ĭitra, 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. 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. Rowan has gone rogue, and has taken it upon himself to put the Scythedom through a trial by fire. My content rating: YA (Violence Characters have sex but it's off-page and not described) Genres: Young Adult, Dystopian, Science Fiction Published by Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers, Audible Studios on January 9, 2018 I’ve already reviewed Scythe, so click the link to read what I had to say about the book (spoiler alert-I thought it was incredible with a small reservation about the way that the Scythes go about the business of killing).īut, strangely I hadn’t read Thunderhead yet, despite my deep love for Scythe, so I’m going to start with a quick review of that one… Well, this latest series is no exception. Neal Shusterman always manages to write books that are both exciting and philosophical-a difficult feat. If you’ve been around my blog for a while, you know that the Unwind Series is my absolute favorite series of all time.
