Before you stands the future.
Straight-laced 16-year-old Rebecca can't wait for her Acceptance. A fancy ball, eligible bachelors, and her debut as an official member of society. Instead, the Machine rejects Rebecca. Labeled as a future criminal, she's shipped off to a life sentence in a lawless penal colony.

Outstanding!!
This book is very well written and narrated! The story keeps you guessing and coming back for more. There were several times I thought I knew what was coming and each time I was pleasantly surprised that I was wrong.
The narration was EXCELLENT! Stacey Glemboski has been added to my very short list of favorite narrators that I will listen to anything they narrate.
This book is fabulous all the way around. I will definitely listen to the rest of the series as soon as possible!! I didn't expect this but I LOVED IT, LOVED IT, LOVED IT!!!!
I received a review copy at my request and voluntarily reviewed.
excellent listen
This was a very good listen. The story was interesting and the pace was steady with interspersed action scenes that were gut clenching. The narration was excellent with each character having their own voice and personality. The book ended in a major cliff hanger.
I was voluntarily provided this free review copy audiobook by the author, narrator, or publisher.
This was Amazing...and I am an adult male
Yes...I know this is a "Young Adult" book, but I truly enjoyed this story. Sarah Negovetich really tells an excellent story and captures the emotions wonderfully.
Stacey Glemboski is a wonderful narrator. She really brings the characters to life. Plus her recording quality is exceptional. She was the perfect choice for this audiobook.
This book was dark
I love dystopian listens. Many books in this genre leans towards the dark. That was definitely the case here.
The reasons behind the machine rejecting people is the side B to this story. The side A is the world building and the abject despair for those living in The Pit. Actually, this could have been darker but trust me, it was dark enough.
The ending shed some light on the situation and while there was resolution, there is definitely a want to check out book two.
The narrator was really good. In fact, she was so good that a few times I actually forgot this was a single narration.
If you like dark dystopian novels, this one delivers.
Brilliant and gripping
Some what dystopian this story is both spellbinding and disturbing. Once a year a ceremony is held where 16 year olds are either accepted into society or rejected as someone who will become a criminal. But it's far from a simple thing.
This book combines loyalty with betrayal, love with disappointment, and fear with hope to create a story that is gripping and leaves you wanting more.
