Asunder

From the New York Times bestselling coauthor of My Plain Jane comes the thrilling and romantic second novel in the Incarnate trilogy, a fantasy series about a girl who is the first new soul born into a society where everyone else has been reborn hundreds of times. As a Newsoul, Ana has always felt alone. Some residents of Heart are afraid of Ana's presence, a constant reminder of unstoppable change and the unknown.
When the people turn violent, Ana must learn to stand up not only for herself, but also for those who cannot stand up for themselves. Romantic and action-filled, the rich world of Asunder is perfect for fans of epic fantasy, like Graceling by Kristin Cashore and The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson, while Ana's courage to expose the cracks in society and fight for what is right is ideal for fans of dystopian novels.

Strong Female Character: As the first Newsoul, Ana must find the courage not only to survive but to fight for the other new souls born into a world that fears them. Political Intrigue: When social unrest turns to violence, Ana finds herself at odds with the powerful Council, exposing secrets that could shatter their 5, 000-year-old society.
