    A stunning debut YA novel, destined to blow the dystopian genre wide open - The Handmaid's Tale for a new generation. This edition will contain a sneak preview of Fever, and a brand new short story by Lauren DeStefano: "The First Bride". Sixteen-year-old Rhine Ellery has only four years left to live when she is kidnapped by the Gatherers and forced into a polygamous marriage. Now she has one purpose: to escape, find her twin brother, and go home - before her time runs out forever. What if you knew you exactly when you would die? In our brave new future, DNA engineering has resulted in a terrible genetic flaw. Women die at the age of 20, men at 25. Young girls are being abducted and forced to breed in a desperate attempt to keep humanity ahead of the disease that threatens to eradicate it. 16-year-old Rhine Ellery is kidnapped and sold as a bride to Linden, a rich young man with a dying wife. Even though he is kind to her, Rhine is desperate to escape her gilded cage - and Linden's cruel father. With the help of Gabriel, a servant she is growing dangerously attracted to, Rhine attempts to break free, in what little time she has left.

    Co kdybyste se dozvěděli, kdy – na den přesně – zemřete? Díky moderní vědě se každá lidská bytost stává tikající časovanou genetickou bombou. Bezohledné manipulace s genetickými informacemi způsobí, že muži se dožívají pouze dvaceti pěti let a ženy dokonce jen dvaceti. V této bezútěšné době jsou mladé dívky unášeny a nuceny žít v polygamním manželství, aby odvrátily hrozbu, že lidstvo vymře. Tento osud čeká i šestnáctiletou Rein Elleryovou. Je unesena, aby se stala jednou z vyvolených nevěst a vstupuje do světa bohatství a privilegií. Přestože její manžel Linden k ní chová opravdové city, jediným cílem Rein je útěk – chce najít svého bratra-dvojče a vrátit se domů. Ale Rein se musí vypořádat s více problémy, než jak znovu získat svobodu. Lindenův excentrický otec je odhodlán najít protilátku na genetický virus, díky kterému mu hrozí ztráta syna, i když to znamená jít přes mrtvoly, aby prověřil své experimenty… 1. vydání. -- zdroj: legie.info --
