Scythe  Cover Image Book Book

Scythe / Neal Shusterman.

Shusterman, Neal, (author.).

Summary:

In a world where disease has been eliminated and the only way to die is to be randomly killed ('gleaned') by professional reapers ('scythes'), two teens must compete with each other to become a scythe--a position neither of them wants. The one who becomes a scythe must kill the one who doesn't.
