Resumen del Editor

Superpowers transform one anxious outsider into New York's most wanted girl in this soulful, spirited young adult contemporary fantasy.

Sixteen-year-old Savannah Scarlett struggles to reclaim her life after the devastating loss of her father. But finding a place to belong isn't easy for someone who's used to living life on the sidelines.

Just when she thinks things can't get any worse, Savannah witnesses an impossible phenomenon that triggers the emergence of a wild and powerful gift. She must learn to accept and control her newfound ability or die trying. That is, if a deadly organization of vicious hunters doesn't kill her first.

Running for her life, Savannah soon finds refuge with the Errants, a ragtag group of powerful misfits who share her power and all the danger that comes with it. A supernatural war has long been brewing. Savannah is no chosen one or savior, but she may be the catalyst needed for the Errants to have a fighting chance at survival against an immortal enemy.

Fans of Divergent and The Darkest Minds are sure to enjoy.

More than it’s promised to be

I adore this book. It’s everything the author promises and more — it has a lovely coming of age story that’s gritty, realistic, and powerful, a found family that survives and comes together despite their flaws, vivid multi-faceted character development, an unflinching portrayal of grief, mental health, complicated families, interesting powers, and ALL THE EMOTION. This book needs to be a bigger deal than it is because it’s everything that a real story of heroes and hope should be. I am so looking forward to the sequel! (And yes, I will be daydreaming of this book for a good many days to come.) Also, the narration was awesome! I enjoyed all the voices and accents, and the narrator really captured the feel of the story.

Excellent Story for Teens

I really enjoyed this book. I struggle a lot with contemporary fiction, and oh boy did everything about Savannah's school experience give me deep anxiety (you can't just miss class! Ah!), and I do think the narrative voice and characters were very teen, but this is a contemporary fantasy YA book, so those are Me problems and not so much Errant problems. Even with those barriers, I still became deeply invested (especially once the contemporary took less of a focus), and I even found myself tearing up a few times. Definitely recommend, especially to those more in the target demographic. I'm hugely interested in continuing the series.

Thrilling Fantasy Adventure

This was my first experience with Montrez's work, and I enjoyed it a lot. Although the book did remind me of the "Divergent Trilogy", there were enough differences that kept my interest in this story. I am looking forward to the next book in the trilogy. I recommend this book with the caveat that there were some violent scenes described in the story. Jessie Lou Darrow's narration was great and added to the story's entertainment. I was given a free copy of the audiobook and I have voluntarily left this review.
