Lissa Price - Starters
Callie ​lost her parents when the Spore Wars wiped out everyone between the ages of twenty and sixty. She and her little brother, Tyler, go on the run, living as squatters with their friend Michael and fighting off renegades who would kill them for a cookie. Callie's only hope is Prime Destinations, a disturbing place in Beverly Hills run by a mysterious figure known as the Old Man. He hires teens to rent their bodies to Enders—seniors who want to be young again. Callie, desperate for the money that will keep her, Tyler, and Michael alive, agrees to be a donor. But the neurochip they place in Callie's head malfunctions and she wakes up in the life of her renter, living in her mansion, driving her cars, and going out with a senator's grandson. It feels almost like a fairy tale, until Callie discovers that her renter intends to do more than party—and that Prime Destinations' plans are more evil than Callie could ever have imagined. . . .

Dan Wells - Partials ​- Részben ember
Az ​emberi faj a teljes megsemmisülés szélén áll, miután a Részlegesekkel – az emberekhez megtévesztésig hasonlító, ám mesterségesen előállított szerves lényekkel – folytatott háború megtizedelte a népességet. Az ott bevetett RM nevű vírus néhány tízezerre redukálta a túlélők számát, akik Long Islanden rendezkedtek be, míg a Részlegesek rejtélyes módon visszavonultak. Bármikor lecsaphatnak újra, de ennél is sürgetőbb probléma, hogy egy évtizede nem született az RM-re immunis csecsemő. Kira, egy tizenhat éves orvostanhallgató a saját bőrén tapasztalja meg, ahogy az RM miatt az emberiség maradéka lassan kipusztul, miközben a kötelező terhességi törvény a polgárháború szélére sodorja őket. Kira nem hajlandó tétlenül nézni az eseményeket, mindent elkövet, hogy megtalálja a vírus gyógymódját. Erőfeszítései közben döbben rá: mind az emberiség, mind a Részlegesek túlélése azon múlik, sikerül-e felfednie a két faj közötti kapcsolatot – amelyet az emberiség vagy elfelejtett, vagy soha nem is tudott róla. Dan Wells, a Nem vagyok sorozatgyilkos méltán elismert szerzője izgalmas utazásra invitálja az olvasót egy olyan világba, amelyben maga az emberi lét fogalma kérdőjeleződik meg – ahol emberi mivoltunk egyben a legnagyobb hátrányunk és egyetlen reményünk a túlélésre.

Dan Wells - Fragments ​- Töredékek
Dan ​Wells hazánkban is igéretesen mutatkozott be, a külföldön hatalmas sikert aratott Nem vagyok sorozatgyilkos című kötetével, a Partials trilógiája pedig még nagyobb siker kint. Kira Walker megtalálta az RM vírus gyógymódját, de az emberek és a Részlegesek túléléséért vívott küzdelem még csak a kezdeténél tart. East Meadow-t elhagyván Kira kétségbeesetten próbálja kideríteni, hogy kicsoda is ő valójában. Nem lehet véletlen egybeesés, hogy az RM gyógymódja maguknak a Részlegeseknek a vérében található – ez nyilván valami nagyobb terv része, amelyben Kirának is szerepet szántak, és amely mindkét fajt megmenthetné. Kirához útja során többen csatlakoznak, köztük Samm, a Részleges is. De vajon megbízhat-e bennük? Ezalatt Long Islanden az emberiség utolsó képviselői felkészülnek a Részlegesek elleni háborúra, és Marcus tudja, az egyetlen reményük, hogy kitartsanak Kira visszatéréséig. Ám a lány útja hosszadalmas a posztapokaliptikus Amerika pusztaságán keresztül, és közben mindkettejük számára fokozatosan kiderül, hogy legnagyobb ellenségük létezéséről eddig nem is tudtak. A lélegzetelállító Részlegesek trilógia második része az emberiség utolsó előtti órájának krónikája. Utazás az ismeretlenbe, amely során fel kell fedeznünk hogyan élhetjük túl – és ami még fontosabb, hogy mi indokolná megmaradásunkat a Földön.

Jessica Brody - Unremembered
The ​only thing worse than forgetting her past... is remembering it. When Freedom Airlines flight 121 went down over the Pacific Ocean, no one ever expected to find survivors. Which is why the sixteen-year-old girl discovered floating among the wreckage—alive—is making headlines across the globe. Even more strange is that her body is miraculously unharmed and she has no memories of boarding the plane. She has no memories of her life before the crash. She has no memories period. No one knows how she survived. No one knows why she wasn’t on the passenger manifest. And no one can explain why her DNA and fingerprints can’t be found in a single database in the world. Crippled by a world she doesn’t know, plagued by abilities she doesn’t understand, and haunted by a looming threat she can’t remember, Seraphina struggles to piece together her forgotten past and discover who she really is. But with every clue only comes more questions. And she’s running out of time to answer them. Her only hope is a strangely alluring boy who claims to know her from before the crash. Who claims they were in love. But can she really trust him? And will he be able to protect her from the people who have been making her forget? From popular young adult author, Jessica Brody comes a mesmerizing and suspenseful new series, set in a world where science knows no boundaries, memories are manipulated, and true love can never be forgotten.

Ann Aguirre - Menedék
A ​második világégéskor születtem. Legendák szóltak egy olyan korról, amikor az emberek hosszú ideig éltek. Én dajkamesének tartottam. Az én világomban senki sem érte meg a negyven évet. Egy enklávéban éltem, ahol a legidősebb közülünk huszonöt éves volt. Némelyek azt suttogták, megváltás lenne számára a halál, de igazából csak nem akarták a saját maguk jövendőjét látni. Pikk amióta csak az eszét tudja, vadásznő szeretett volna lenni. A vadászok feladata élelmet szerezni a közösségnek a föld alatti menedéket körülölelő, életveszélyes alagútrendszerből, amelyben örök sötétség honol, miközben igyekeznek elkerülni a Korcsokat, ezeket a zombiszerű, vérszomjas szörnyetegeket. Amikor az örök kívülálló, Fakó nevű vadászt osztják be mellé társul, aki titokzatos körülmények között került az enklávéba, a lányt tiltott érzelmek kerítik hatalmukba. Fakóval hamarosan rádöbbennek, hogy a Korcsok egyre szervezettebben lépnek fel ellenük, ám az idősek nem hallgatnak figyelmeztetésükre.

Saruuh Kelsey - The ​Forgotten
Good ​and goodness will prevail. Honour and Horatia Frie are twins living in a world of wreck and ruin. Forgotten London is a dismal place of containment, rationing, and a four-family-per-house regulation. Twenty five years ago the world was set ablaze when solar flares obliterated three quarters of the Earth’s population and wiped out whole continents in one blow. The flares brought with them The Sixteen Strains: agonizing and fatal diseases that plague each of the forty one zones of Forgotten London and the rest of the world. The only places that escaped fatal damage were two countries now known as The Cities – States and Bharat. The rest of the world – The Forgotten Lands – is contained within borders for the people’s protection against even deadlier Strains outside the barrier. But fifteen year old Honour thinks differently. He thinks that they’re kept inside the fence for other, more menacing reasons. He thinks that States are planning to kill them. Branwell and Bennet Ravel are twins living in a world of danger and secrecy. In Victorian London, years before the solar flares hit, the Ravels’ world has just been turned upside down. Their father, poisoned by something even genius Branwell can’t determine, has passed away. His dying words were unnerving orders to keep each other safe no matter the cost, and to hide everything he has ever invented. When one of his creations goes missing – a device named The Lux that can generate unlimited energy – the twins are shocked to discover that their very own government has stolen it and, according to their father’s journals, are planning to use it to create unfathomable explosions to destroy their world. The Ravel twins will have to find and reclaim The Lux if they are to stop their world’s planned destruction, but when they’re transported to an unfamiliar, derelict world, the search for the device will become harder than ever. Honour and Horatia, against all odds, will have to find a way to stop States before the remainder of Earth is eradicated and their world is lost for good, or somehow get every single citizen of Forgotten London outside of the fence.

Mary E. Pearson - The ​Adoration of Jenna Fox
Where ​does it lie? In a face? A voice? A bundled string of events we call a lifetime? Is it in our DNA, bone, flesh, ancestry? How do we define our identity, and is it a once and for all definition? Or is it always changing? Who am I? Can anyone ever know for sure just what it takes to be who we are? We all search for our place in this world and how we fit in, but for Jenna Fox that search reaches dark new dimensions when she wakes from a coma and can’t remember who she is. Worse, she doesn’t remember the people who claim to be her parents. There is something curious about them, about the house they all live in--in fact, curious describes her whole life, as she attempts to unlock the secrets of who she was, and who she has become. The Adoration of Jenna Fox is about Jenna’s search for identity, a quest as old as history, but as startling as the future.

Jennifer L. Armentrout - Obsidian
Starting ​over sucks. When we moved to West Virginia right before my senior year, I’d pretty much resigned myself to thick accents, outhouses, dodgy internet access, and a whole lot of boring. Until I spotted my hot neighbor with his looming height and eerie green eyes. Things were looking up. And then he opened his mouth. Daemon is infuriating. Arrogant. Stab-worthy. We do not get along. At all. But when a stranger attacks me and Daemon literally freezes time with a wave of his hand, well, something…unexpected happens. The hot alien living next door marked me. You heard me. Alien. Turns out Daemon and his sister have a galaxy of enemies wanting to steal their abilities, and the mark he left on me has me lit up like Las Vegas strip to the bad guys. The only way I'm getting out of this alive is by sticking close to Daemon until my alien mojo fades. If I don't kill him first, that is. And then things got really bad…

Susan Beth Pfeffer - Life ​As we Knew It

As summer turns to Arctic winter, Miranda, her two brothers, and their mother retreat to the unexpected safe haven of their sunroom, where they subsist on stockpiled food and limited water in the warmth of a wood-burning stove. Told in journal entries, this is the heart-pounding story of Miranda’s struggle to hold on to the most important resource of all--hope--in an increasingly desperate and unfamiliar world.

Michael Grant - BZRK
Love ​The Hunger Games? Action-adventure thrillers with a dystopian twist?

Set in the near future, a conspiracy is afoot to create a perfect and perfectly controlled world.

A shadowy guerilla group known as BZRK form a nascent resistance movement. Both sides develop sophisticated nanotechnology to achieve their goals: - The Armstrong twins develop the nanobot, a stealth device that latches onto the brains of unsuspecting citizens - BZRK's DNA-derived biots are deployed to search out and destroy the insidious bots. If biots are destroyed, the brain cells of their DNA-donor also die. Hence the name BZRK.

Gennifer Albin - Crewel
Incapable. ​Awkward. Artless. That’s what the other girls whisper behind her back. But sixteen year-old Adelice Lewys has a secret: she wants to fail. Gifted with the ability to weave time with matter, she’s exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, eternal beauty, and being something other than a secretary. It also means the power to embroider the very fabric of life. But if controlling what people eat, where they live and how many children they have is the price of having it all, Adelice isn’t interested. Not that her feelings matter, because she slipped and wove a moment at testing, and they’re coming for her—tonight. Now she has one hour to eat her mom’s overcooked pot roast. One hour to listen to her sister’s academy gossip and laugh at her Dad’s stupid jokes. One hour to pretend everything’s okay. And one hour to escape. Because once you become a Spinster, there’s no turning back.
