No more puzzles. And no more running. Thomas was sure that escaping meant he would get his life back. But no one knew what sort of a life they were going back to... Burned and baked, the earth is a wasteland, its people driven mad by an infection known as the Flare. Instead of freedom, Thomas must face another trial.

Now, Day has been accused of killing Metias and June is on the hunt for him. When the two finally meet, their worlds start to change and they start to realize that nothing is exactly the way they thought.
This is another dystopic adventure featuring a plucky bright heroine. One of the main differences is that June knows just how good she is and has faith in her abilities. June can be a bit naive, and the ending of the book does kind of dissolve into some schmupitude, but aside from that I was really absorbed in the story. Day is a hero who is too good to be true, but so likable that you don't really care. I can't wait to read the next book in this trilogy (I think it's a trilogy) because I want to know what kind of change Day can really achieve.
