Crossed: The Fractured Fairy Tale and TikTok Sensation (Never After)

Product Information

Meanwhile, the few surviving non-infected are hardened veterans who have been combating the Crossed for years, further increasing the pressure of natural selection as the Crossed are forced to become smarter and more cunning to catch the survivors off-guard.

I hope in Reached (which I will be reading, I want to know who she ends up despite my issues with the previous two books) there will be more action and happenings. While hiding out with a group of survivors, he observes an imposing axe-wielding member of the Crossed, dubbed "Smokey" for his fireman's garb, noting that he seems to have much greater intelligence that allows him to lead his fellow infected (paralleling the character Big Daddy from Land of the Dead).

I was hoping that if they travelled through the Canyon, they would have something interesting happen to them. Indie reveals to Ky that she found a map to the Rising, that she believes he is destined to be the pilot. In many cases, the personality and resultant madness of a Crossed individual will be affected by memories and relationships they had prior to infection. Matched was chosen as one of YALSA's 2011 Teens' Top Ten and named as one of Publishers Weekly's Best Children's Books of 2010.

The plot follows Cassia and Ky's respective journeys to find each other again in the outer provinces as they begin to learn of a growing rebellion against the Society. I enjoyed how we got to see more depth from Cassia and Ky – and this book is told in dual perspectives. Perhaps what they really want, deep down inside, is to be featured in a trilogy, and maybe even have a movie made out of it! The more coherent Crossed who survived many years, however, are capable of forming into even larger groups of over a hundred without fighting each other (as seen in The Fatal Englishman and the webcomics). The books reached the best on the New York Times bestseller list for children's chapter books, which includes young adult novels.It follows Julie (an uninfected archivist) and Fleshcook (a Crossed raised by one of the twelve disciples of Beauregard Salt) as they attempt to forge an alliance between infected and uninfected. Following volumes Crossed: Family Values, Crossed 3D, and Crossed: Psychopath were written by David Lapham. When he's tasked to become the priest in Festivalé, Vermont-a town both beautiful in architecture and riddled with despair-his sickness sings, demanding he rid the place of evil.
