The Sign of One (Sign of One trilogy)

by Eugene Lambert (Author)

Synopsis

One for sorrow, two for death... On Wrath, a dump-world for human outcasts, identical twins are feared. Only one will grow up human, while the other becomes a condemned monster with `twisted' blood. When sixteen-year-old Kyle is betrayed, he flees for his life with the help of Sky, a rebel pilot with trust issues. As the hunt intensifies, Kyle soon realises that he is no ordinary runaway - although he has no idea why he warrants this level of pursuit. The hideous truth they discover could change the fate of Wrath and its harsh laws forever. Their reluctant, conflicted partnership will either save them - or bring about their destruction.

Media Reviews
`Sometimes you don't need to reinvent the wheel, just make a really, really good wheel ... [Lambert] does it with style, wit, pace and a strong central premise ... wonderfully gruesome in places and benefits from scarred, laconic and selfish but ultimately likeable heroes. 4 stars' SFX `Pitch-perfect ... The best Young Adult read so far this year' Mr Ripley's Enchanted Books `A thrilling YA sci-fi adventure reminiscent of Hunger Games and Star Wars ... a fantastic page-turner with great characters in Kyle and Sky' Booktrust `Full of quick twists and portraying a protagonist who seems very real ... pretty much unputdownable' Annika, Goodreads
