Publisher Description
Two 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 best-selling Unwind Dystology series.
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.

It is one of the best books I’ve ever read and totally recommend the series I bought the audiobook to listen to on car rides and before I go to bed and absolutely love it.

Loved it
“Scythe” is a captivating dystopian novel that explores a world where death has been conquered, yet controlled by a group of individuals called Scythes. With complex characters, vivid world-building, and thought-provoking ethical dilemmas, this book is a must-read for fans of dystopian fiction. It kept me engaged from start to finish, making it hard to put down. Highly recommended!
