The New Order

by Chris Weitz

Overview

Un virus a décimé toute la population des États-Unis, à l’exception des adolescents. Ces derniers pensaient être les seuls survivants… mais ils se trompaient.
 
Après l'inattendu twist final du tome 1, Donna et Jefferson se séparent. Jefferson retourne à New York, où il va tenter de trouver l'antidote du virus au sein de la tribu des Washington Square. Donna, quant à elle, se rend en Angleterre, où elle est confrontée à un tout autre monde. Parviendront-ils à se réunir de nouveau pour empêcher ce qui s'annonce comme un désastre plus grand encore que le virus qui a anéantit le continent ?
 
Un deuxième tome aussi passionnant que le premier.

Traduit de l’anglais (États-Unis) par Sébastien Guillot

Editorial Reviews

Praise for The Young World:"A post-apocalyptic teen novel that's far from just another post-apocalyptic teen novel."—Kirkus

"The Young World is a thrilling post-apocalyptic page-turner."—Stephen Chbosky, author of The Perks of Being a Wallflower

"The Young World is captivating with its constant action that will draw readers in and keep them enthralled until the very end."—VOYA

"The fascination of turning allusiveness into action may even explain the desire of an author as potentially imaginative and original as Chris Weitz to write such crisply practical, such shrewdly shameless, popular entertainments."—The New York Times Book Review

"Weitz offers a satisfying YA interpretation of the Greek classic Anabasis, brimming with grisly encounters and gallows humor. He also finds room to touch upon issues of race, class, commercialism, and sexuality in nuanced moments that are sharply juxtaposed with the near-constant dangers and seeming hopelessness of the larger picture."—Publishers Weekly

"A broken NYC is so compelling that readers will find it hard to put this book down."— School Library Journal

"Telling his story in the alternating voices of Jeff and Donna, noted film director Weitz, in his first YA novel, has done a good job of meticulously building his postapocalyptic world."—Booklist

"This is a page-turner that will hook readers from the beginning."—Library Media Connection

"[A] pretty irresistible spot to end, guaranteeing interest in the remaining two novels of this promised trilogy."—The Bulletin
