Title: Scythe Pdf
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.
Great Book, Series Should Be Amazing. This book is great. I love the cover and that is what initially drew me to the book. Then when I was in the store I started to read the beginning of the book and that peaked my interest. I have never read Neal Shusterman before Scythe, but this will not be the last book by him that I read by him. His characters are great. Some characters are easy to like, others easy to hate, and others that you just aren't sure of.One thing that really helped you understand some of the characters was journal entries. Before each chapter there is a journal entry from a Scythe. These journal entries help you learn more about characters, but more than that, they also help you understand the world he has created. That is one thing that also made the book great, the world. It is a world that I enjoyed spending time in, I enjoyed reading part of the book each day.I don't feel like the book has any slow moments, it held my attention the whole time. After I was finished reading it, I found myself asking, "Does this really need to be a trilogy?" There is no big cliff hanger at the end and I do feel this could have stood on its own, but I also understand why he is making it a trilogy. I look forward to reading Thunderhead (Book 2). I actually already have Thunderhead, but I have heard it ends on a major cliff hanger, so I will wait until Book 3 is closer. But don't hesitate to read this story. It is a great story and a great world. And as I said, there are no major cliff hangers.On a side note, I also listened to some of the audio book and it is great as well.I highly recommend this novel. Thank you Mr. Shusterman for writing a YA Novel that left me asking myself some questions as the book went along.Loved it! Let me see if I can write a review for this book that doesn’t sound like a bunch of nonsense.I heard so many people raving about this book and I just had to see what all the fuss was about!I REALLY enjoyed this book! If you were to explain this book to someone, it might not sound like there cup of tea.So this book is set in a world where people don’t die, you become deadish, because immediately upon the stopping of your heart, you are taken to a revival center and brought back to life. There are no diseases, no strife. Everyone has a good life, a satisfying life.To combat with over population, the Scythedom was created. Scythes have one job, and that is to kill. Citra and Rowan are chosen to become scythes because they don’t want to be a scythe, and that makes them perfect.So much happens in this book, so much growth from the first encounter with Citra and Rowan to the very last page.The world was beautifully built and wonderfully described. There was a lot of foreshadowing that you don’t understand until after the fact. I love it when books have foreshadowing because there little subtle hints towards the bigger picture.I fell in love with certain characters and despised others. There were parts were there was some humor to make light of the situation, but not in a way that was out of place.I love the development between the two main characters, even through the tough times.“’I love you.’ He said.‘Same here,’ she responded. ‘now get lost.’”As for the content in this book, it was relatively mild.Violence: There is lots of violence. Gun violence, stabbing, poisoning, breaking spines, snapping necks so far as to have the head turn and the lifeless eyes stare back. Burning, decapitation, mass murder, and just about anything you could think of. A scythe whole purpose is to kill.Romance: mentions of hormones, mentions of attractions, a kiss, multiple occasions of innuendo, talk about how a character tried to “climb into his bed and be with him” but the other character wakes up and thinks she was trying to kill him.Language: There are several occasions where cuss words are used.Other: a mention of testicles, mention of a girl in a skimpy bikini, mentions of extremities, a joke about making his robe color invisible, walking up the steps naked. There are two instances where someone insinuates that a character is gay (he is not).
