After defying the ruthless Enclave, surviving the wasteland, and upending the rigid matriarchy of Sylum, Gaia Stone now faces her biggest challenge ever.

She must lead the people of Sylum back to the Enclave and persuade the Protectorat to grant them refuge from the wasteland. In Gaia's absence, the Enclave has grown more cruel, more desperate to experiment on mothers from outside the wall, and now the stakes of cooperating or rebelling have never been higher. Is Gaia ready, as a leader, to sacrifice what-or whom-she loves most?

Critic reviews

"A satisfying finish to a strong series that deftly mixed romance and, of all things, genetics." ( Booklist)

Any additional comments?

This final book of the series was pretty good and not quite what I expected. I thought it could have been a bit better. It felt a little rushed. But I did enjoy it all the same and I think this book was worth buying.

A good 3rd and final book.

I was hopeful with the first book, interesting twist with second thought it dragged at times, but the third book was disappointing.. and a little weird (not in a good way)

Meh

How could the performance have been better?

The narrator was HORRIBLE! I don't think I could say it enough. The reader read everything completely wrong even when it said differently in the book. She would read a confrontation calmly when the book stated ".....blah blah blah, they argued." The book says that she becomes a strong woman and the narrator makes her sound like a weak little girl who has no clue what she is doing and is terrified like a 4 year old. When she is being interrogated, the narrator makes it sound like she is pleading by saying I'm sorry like a little girl when the book has her being strong and confident. This chick should never narrate a book again in her life.

I think that because I have teenage girls, that when she acts like a teenager and whiny and makes dumb decisions as a leader, I found it annoying. Kind of far fetched that she would be a ruler in my opinion.

I enjoyed the series, but this one was least favorite
