β¦ Synopsis
Review
βA gripping story that begs the question: Do you really know what lies at the genesis of your friend's biology, psyche or even their heart?β β __Shelf Awareness
__ββ¦the story is gripping, urgent, and highly appealingβ¦β**** --_School Library Journal
"...it is through his [Lockeβs] viewpoint that we experience the confusing futuristic world, the thrilling suspense of the chase, the charged emotional reunion of the friends, and the admirably complex playing out of the issues of trust, ethics, and betrayal.β -- Horn Book Magazine_
βA dazzling blend of science fiction, mystery, and teen friendship dramaβ¦β --Publishers Weekly, starred review
"...the book's timely and haunting questions will leave thoughtful readers with much to ponder." --Kirkus Reviews
βIn this futuristic follow-up, Pearson pries open the most haunting element of Jenna Fox's world: disembodied minds trapped in computers. Questions of human identity and nightmarish medical technology drive this riveting, thought-provoking sequel.β
βSuzanne Collins, author of The Hunger Games
Product Description
Once there were three. Three friends who loved each otherβJenna, Locke, and Kara. And after a terrible accident destroyed their bodies, their three minds were kept alive, spinning in a digital netherworld. Even in that disembodied nightmare, they were still together. At least at first. When Jenna disappeared, Locke and Kara had to go on without her. Decades passed, and then centuries.
Two-hundred-and-sixty years later, they have been released at last. Given new, perfect bodies, Locke and Kara awaken to a world they know nothing about, where everyone they once knew and loved is long dead.
Everyone except Jenna Fox.
