About this listen

The first audiobook in the heart-stopping The Darkest Minds trilogy, by New York Times bestselling author of Passenger, for fans of Divergent and The Hunger Games.

Ruby is sixteen. She is dangerous. And she is alive. For now.

A mysterious disease has killed most of America's children. Ruby might have survived, but she and the others have emerged with something far worse than a virus: frightening abilities they cannot control. Pressured by the government, Ruby's parents sent her to Thurmond, a brutal state 'rehabilitation camp', where she has learned to fear and suppress her new power. But what if mastering it is a whole generation's only chance for survival?

Alexandra Bracken is the New York Times bestselling author of Passenger, Wayfarer and The Darkest Minds series. Visit her online at alexandrabracken.com and on Twitter @alexbracken.

This hole sirise is one of my favourite books l. The way Mrs Beaken paint the story is amazing and Mrs McFadin was a incredible nerater.

My favourite character is Zue because she strong, powerful and reminds me of my self. I love that it ends on a cliffhanger and all my questions were answerd in never dais ( book 2)
