In Alive, Scott Sigler introduced readers to an unforgettable young
heroine and a mysterious new world reminiscent of those of The Hunger
Games, Divergent, and Red Rising. Now he expands his singular vision
in the next thrilling novel of this powerful sci-fi adventure series.
"If it's war they want, they messed with the wrong girl."
M. Savage--or Em, as she is called--has made a bewildering and ominous
discovery. She and the other young people she was chosen to lead awoke
in strange coffins with no memory of their names or their pasts. They
faced an empty, unknown place of twisting tunnels and human bones. With
only one another to depend on, they searched for answers and found the
truth about their terrifying fate. Confronted by a monstrous enemy, they
vowed never to surrender--and, by any means, to survive.
The planet Omeyocan may be the sanctuary Em and her comrades seek. But
the planet for which they were created turns out not to be a pristine,
virgin world. Vestiges of a lost civilization testify to a horrifying
past that may yet repeat itself. And when a new enemy creeps from the
jungle shadows, Em and her young refugees learn there's nowhere left to
run. They face a simple choice: fight or die.
In the midst of this desperate struggle, their unity is compromised from
within--and a dangerous zealot devoted to a bloodthirsty god moves to
usurp Em's command, threatening to lead them all down a path to violent
doom.
