Requiem (Versione italiana)

by Lauren Oliver, Francesca Flore (Translator)

Overview

Lena è ormai parte integrante della resistenza contro chi vuol eliminare l'amore dalla faccia della Terra, ma non è più la stessa ragazza di un tempo. Dopo aver salvato Julian dalla morte, Lena ha trovato rifugio nelle Terre Selvagge, dove ha anche reincontrato Alex, il primo amore che pensava morto... Ormai, però, nemmeno le Terre Selvagge sono un luogo sicuro: il governo non può più negare l'esistenza degli Invalidi e i Regolatori sono in viaggio per abbattere i ribelli. È scoppiata una vera e propria rivoluzione. Nel frattempo, Hana vive una vita tranquilla e senza amore a Portland, fidanzata al sindaco della città. Inaspettatamente le strade delle due amiche si incroceranno ancora una volta, prima che la lotta abbia fine.

Editorial Reviews

Praise for PANDEMONIUM:“This is a romance in the purest of senses, where just the longing for the faintest taste of love is worth the greatest of risks. Like all successful second volumes, this expands the world and ups the stakes, setting us up for the big finale.

Booklist

Praise for PANDEMONIUM:“If...you crave the heart-stopping action of the arena from The Hunger Games combined with a destined-to-be-doomed love story then this sequel is perfect for you!

Fraught with high-stakes action and gripping emotion, the final chapters of Lena Haloway's journey will have readers breathlessly turning the pages. But it is not Lena's story alone this time around. Her story alternates with that of Hana, Lena's "cured" best friend, lending depth and intrigue to the novel through the latter's firsthand account of life in a world vaccinated against the destructive powers of love. Hana struggles to come to terms with both her role in Lena's disappearance and her own upcoming marriage to a powerful and increasingly frightening young man. Having fled to the Wilds with a band of resistance fighters that includes the only two men she's ever loved, Lena is faced with struggles of her own. Now that the government can no longer deny the existence of the Invalids, revolution is inevitable, and Lena must reconcile her passion for the rebel cause with her deeply conflicted heart if she hopes to survive. A soldier, a lover, a cousin and a friend, Lena is a rich and achingly human heroine whose strength and vulnerability will earn her a permanent place in readers' hearts. Before starting, readers should turn off their cellphones and wipe their schedules clean, because once they open the book, they won't be able to stop. A dystopian tour de force. (Dystopian romance. 14 & up)
