| Publisher Description: Readers who love speculative fiction and crave action-packed stories similar to Veronica Roth's Divergent series will find The Isle absolutely unputdownable. Jordana Frankel's thrilling and imaginative novel The Isle takes up where The Ward left off, with drought season coming to a futuristic flooded New York City and its inhabitants suffering from a deadly disease called the Blight. With the help of a scientist and a racing buddy, drag racer Ren has found a cure for the disease, and her sister, Aven, is on the mend. But Aven's unexpected recovery has caught the eye of the evil Governor Voss. And when it comes to light that the cure, miraculous healing water, is the only freshwater source in the area, Governor Voss isn't the only one after the sisters and their invaluable knowledge. Can they save themselves and their city? |
