Great mixture of dystopian and romance! The startling thing about this book is the recognition that how the world falls apart could potentially happen. It all starts with a vaccine… a vaccine gone wrong. I am looking forward to reading the second book! This one answered some questions, but still left a lot of unknowns. It was a fast paced book that was hard to put down.
There is no cure for being stung.
Fiona doesn’t remember going to sleep. But when she awakens, her world no longer exists. Her house is abandoned and broken. Her neighborhood is barren and dead. And there is a tattoo on her right hand. A tattoo Fiona doesn’t remember getting…but somehow she must conceal at any cost. Because humanity has been divided.
Those bearing the tattoo have turned into mindless, violent beasts that roam the streets and sewers, preying upon the unbranded, while a select few live protected inside a fortresslike wall, their lives devoted to rebuilding society and killing all who bear the mark.
And Fiona has awoken branded, on the wrong side of the wall, and…normal.
