Guardians
(Wasteland #3)
Authors: Susan Kim & Laurence Klavan
Genre: YA Sci-Fi
Book Description:
The Emmy Award-nominated and Edgar Award-winning duo of Susan Kim and Laurence Klavan deliver a heart-pounding finale to the postapocalyptic teen world of the Wasteland, filled with dramatic twists and turns. Bestselling author of Criminal, Karin Slaughter, called Wasteland "a Lord of the Flies for future generations. An irresistible page-turner."
No one dares to leave the District—the towering structure of glass and steel that is their protection against the unruly bands of Outsiders that roam Mundreel and the deadly rain that carries the disease that kills all over the age of nineteen.
This skyscraper stands amid the urban devastation, the city rumored to have once been called "Montreal." Esther and her allies have created a haven on the rooftop, a garden that flourishes, and a home for her new baby, hidden from all but the very few who know her secret. But as Gideon's power grows and factions form, the ultimate darkness is born from greed, and Esther must find a way to save the citizens from themselves.
Guardians Music Playlist
Since our characters have such short lives and have to make the most of them, we’d choose:
“Time of Our Lives” by Pitbull and Ne-Yo…
"Fifteen" by Taylor Swift...
"Forever Young" by Bob Dylan...
"Your Life is Now" by John Mellencamp...
and "Time" by Pink Floyd.
