Humanity has conquered illness and disease, age and decay. How did I get this book: Review Copy from the Publisher Stand alone or series: Book 1 in the Arc of a Scythe series And when it becomes clear that the winning apprentice’s first task will be to glean the loser, Citra and Rowan are pitted against one another in a fight for their lives. Only one of them will be chosen as a scythe’s apprentice. Citra and Rowan are teenagers who have been selected to be scythe’s apprentices, and-despite wanting nothing to do with the vocation-they must learn the art of killing and come to understand the necessity of what they do. In a world where disease has been eliminated, the only way to die is to be randomly killed (“gleaned”) by professional reapers (“scythes”).
