About this listen

Like all citizens since the ruining, Carrington Hale knows the importance of this day. But she never expected the moment she'd spent a lifetime preparing for - her choosing ceremony - to end in disaster. Ripped from her family, she'll spend her days serving as a lint, the lowest level of society. She knows it's her duty to follow the true way of the authority.

But as Carrington begins this nightmare, rumors of rebellion rattle her beliefs. Though the whispers contradict everything she's been told, they resonate deep within.

Then Carrington is offered an unprecedented chance at the life she's always dreamed of, yet she can't shake the feeling that it may be an illusion. With a killer targeting lints and corruption threatening the highest levels of the authority, Carrington must uncover the truth before it destroys her.

Really enjoyed this. Almost finished the 2nd one and the 3rd one isn't on audible so not sure when I'll be able to read it... I like the style of this and the underlying message.

Great dystopian story. Enjoyable narration with strong characters. Enjoyed listening to the story unfold and was sorry when it had finished.

Uplifting & thought provoking

Overall decent story, but there was mostly telling and no showing, very little actual dialogue between the characters and repetitive slow moving plot.

Worth a listen
