To save her sister, who is suffering from a deadly illness thought to be caused by years of pollution, Ren accepts a secret mission from the government: to search for a freshwater source in the Ward, with the hope of it leading to a cure.
However, she never expects that her search will lead to dangerous encounters with a passionate young scientist; a web of deceit and lies; and an earth-shattering mystery that’s lurking deep beneath the water’s rippling surface.
Jordana Frankel’s ambitious debut novel and the first in a two-book series, The Ward is arresting, cinematic, and thrilling—perfect for fans of Scott Westerfeld or Ann Aguirre
There are so many awesome books out this month! I wish I could read them all. Thank you for putting up this list, because I had forgotten about like half of these. :)
ReplyDelete'm seriously looking forward to quite a few of those. Have to read the Rising as soon as it gets here I can't wait. I want Arclight and The Ward and The boyfriend App! Read The Eternity Cure - loved it. I'm up in the air on Sweet Peril - I read Sweet Evil and thought it was just 'ok'.
