Detalles de producto
- A Time Best YA Book of All Time (2021) Two teens must learn the art of killing in this Printz Honor-winning book, the first in the chilling, New York Times bestselling Arc of a Scythe series from National Book Award-winning author Neal Shusterman. A world with no hunger, no disease, no war, no misery: humanity has conquered them all...even 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 failure could mean losing their own. The more they train, the more Citra and Rowan learn that a perfect world comes with a heavy price.

Neal Shusterman All Books Editorial Review
The book Scythe is a dystopian novel by Neal Shusterman that explores the concept of a world without death and the need for Scythes, whose role is population control by selecting individuals for "gleaning." The story follows the two apprentices, Citra and Rowan, who initially do not want the job, but eventually become perfect for it. Reviewers praise the novel's world-building, original concept, and unpredictable plot, with readers expressing their intrigue in anticipation of the next book. The book's handling of themes such as mortality, love, and mystery also drew attention. However, critics pointed out that the character development could have been stronger, particularly in regard to the main characters, who lacked enough interaction to provoke emotional attachment. Some people also expressed confusion regarding the level of technology and the concepts of the Thunderhead and "resetting." Despite the flaws, overall, Scythe proved to be an enjoyable read that will appeal to young adults and adults alike.
