The end of the world is here. What are YOU doing?

Meet Molly Anderson. Twenty-one years old. A razor girl. She's one lean, mean, cybernetic kicking machine. Which is practically true, given the enhancements her father installed in her. Her father believed the world was going to end. He was right.

The year is now 2036, and out of the shelterhouse Molly was in for six years. Into the a post-apocalyptic feeding zone. Even with ocular implants and razor nails- can Molly live up to her father's favorite character- from a book no less- and be a razor girl?

Then, she meets Chase Griffin, a blast from the past, but a welcome one as he helps her complete her pilgrimage, and- hopefully- save the world...

From the Others, before it is too late. In more ways than one.

I was just absorbed into the plot so easily. Ms.Mancusi gives you a preview of what is to come and then you have two parallel storylines that complement each other. Very enthralling and intriguing. The characterization itself was very well done, and with several point of views, you can experience the story. The characters themselves engage you and you feel like you're right there with them.

I heartily enjoyed the novel as well as its plot, which surprised me, considering semi-science-fiction it was, then again there was romance intergrated in the plot. Still, I think non-romance readers (guys included) can still enjoy the story. It's a definite read, but for older teens, due to some romantic scenes.
