Synopsis

Remy Alexander wants justice. After narrowly escaping death at the hands of the Sector only to watch her world burn around her, she will defy everyone to find her revenge. Valerian Orlean wants truth. After learning what evils the Sector is truly capable of, he must confront his past in order to create a better future. In a world where deadly secrets lurk around every corner, and the food you eat can enlighten or enslave you, Remy and Vale must walk the line between hope and hate, love and loss, violence and vengeance, in order to unite – or destroy – their world. THE REAPING, the second book in the Seeds trilogy, will thrust the Resistance into the spotlight as the Okarian Sector publicly brands them as traitors and terrorists. As Remy struggles to find herself in a world where revenge has become her raison d’etre, and Vale tries to make sense of who he is despite his identity as an Orlean, the two are forced to fight together against enemies more deadly than they ever could have imagined. As they venture through the Wilds, onto a Farm, and deep into the Sector’s dangerous No-Go zones, they will find the path to truth or they will drown in the attempt. Picking up where The Sowing, Book One of the Seeds Trilogy, left off, this science-fiction dystopia written by the mother-daughter writing team of Kristina, Amira, and Elena Makansi immerses readers in the post-apocalyptic world of the Okarian Sector, where romance, friendship, adventure, and betrayal will decide the fate of a budding nation. Praise for The Sowing, Book One of the Seeds Trilogy: "The Sowing doesn't stop surprising," - C.G. Ayling, author of the Malmaxa series. "The Sowing rocks, and it rocked me from the opening pages..." - Daryl Rothman, author of the forthcoming The Awakening of David Rose. "An imaginative and well-described world...fans of The Hunger Games, Inside Out, Uglies, and Across The Universe will absolutely enjoy this," - Imran Siddiq, author of the Divided Worlds series.
