Resumen del Editor

Three teens fight for their lives and each other in this breathtakingly suspenseful first book in the twisted, New York Times best-selling Unwind Dystology series by Neal Shusterman.

After America’s Second Civil War, the Pro-Choice and Pro-Life armies came to an agreement. According to their Bill of Life, human life may not be terminated from the moment of conception until the age of 13. But between the ages of 13 and 18, the child may be gotten rid of by their parent through a process called “unwinding”.

By repurposing a teen’s organs and other body parts in living recipients, the unwound child’s life doesn’t technically end. According to society’s leaders, unwinding leads to a healthier and safer community, as troublesome and unwanted teens are used for the greater good.

Curtis is a rebel whose unwinding was ordered by his parents. Rita, a ward of the state, has been slated for unwinding due to cost cutting. And Lev, his parents’ tenth child, has been destined for unwinding since birth as a religious tithe. As their paths intersect, they start to fight for their own destinies. But do they stand a chance of escaping their fate or proving their lives are worth saving?

Does not Disappoint

I love dystopian novels and this one does not disappoint!! It always takes me awhile to get past the narrators voice but I got use to it quickly in this book. Great listen!

I get goosebumps everything I listen.

I am in love with this series. I have listened to is probably 3-4 times now and get chills and goosebumps every time. the writing is phenomenal and the performance is amazing!!!

veeeerrrrry dark

so dark... but a great listen. makes you think for sure. very glad things aren't actually this way... but we do still have a long ways to go as a society.

Such a good book

My fiance recommended it to me, and now I recommend it for other listeners.

Weird concept good story

This book makes you think what’s wrong with this world but also why do we fight on current issues today that really mean nothing. It’s super weird but very entertaining. My fiancé told me about this book and the concept and I didn’t ever think about listening to it until she wouldn’t drop it and I had to find out for myself.

One of my favorites!

This is a book people try to get banned from libraries. I have no idea why. It is a great fiction story. Listen for yourself! Highly recommended!!

Great story

Concepts and storytelling are great. The narrator has a good voice as well. Book was great from beginning to end

Perfect

Excellent narrator and amazing story. I read this book in middle school and loved it, great to hear it depicted just as well as reading it!

great story terrible narration

the narrator has such a boring monotone voice it ruined the book for me. i remember loving this book before

Favorite book series

This is my favorite book series and I’m so glad audible did a good job with it. Having multiple character narrators it is important to have different inflection for each character and this narrator does a good job of bringing the characters to life. The book itself can be considered controversial so readers please be aware of this at the beginning.
