August Valen’s world is defined as perfect by the Utopian society known simply as a Center. No financial strife, no hard labor, and no filthy humans from the Under, the lawless lands outside a Center. The children in the Centers are taught this normality since birth, but not all see it that way. When August finds himself uprooted from his life and banished to another Center across the ocean by his widowed father, he complies under false assumptions. His father believes that what August doesn’t know can’t hurt him.That is the premise of the Center’s ideology, but August will soon come to learn just how faulty his society is.And that fissure runs deeper than he ever could have imagined, with the load of an ancient responsibility that he never desired.
