Young Fiction Dystopian

Tras lo acontencido en las partes previas de esta serie de "La selección", la situación se vuelve cada vez más acuciante y la disyuntiva en la que se encuentra America tampoco es mucho mejor: debe escoger entre su primer amor, Aspen, y el príncipe Maxon, quien poco a poco ha ido conquistándola. Eso sin tener en cuenta que el príncipe debe escogerla a ella también de entre las seis seleccionadas que podrían convertirse en su esposa y que aún permanecen en palacio.

In Elleon, your fate is determined by the color of your blood.

A serum is administered to change the color of their blood, determining their place in society. Those with purple blood will join the elite class, moving to the capital city to live in high-tech luxury with the rest of the ruling class. The blue bloods will continue to live their lives as they have- in their small agricultural towns with minimal technology.

Thirteen-year-old Kyra has grown up in an isolated polygamous community without questioning her father's three wives and her twenty brothers and sisters.

But when the Prophet decrees that Kyra must marry her 60-year-old uncle—who already has six wives—Kyra must make a desperate choice in the face of violence and her own fears of losing her family.

Tout dans leurs origines les oppose. Les obstacles entre leurs peuples, entre leurs familles, sont dangereux et insurmontables. Pourtant, pour survivre, ils doivent s'aider... ou décider de se détruire.
