Strong, confidant, and in control of her once debilitating powers, the world trembles at her feet while news of what she\u2019s capable of spreads like fire among the State\u2019s enemies. As the death toll rises and Dr. Richter further warps her into a weapon of war, Wynter is forced to embrace the daunting reality of what she\u2019s become. With the remnants of her humanity hanging on by a shoestring, she must choose between the one sacrifice that could lead to her salvation or the dark path of destruction from which there can be no return.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Torn between two sides of a war she never asked for, will Wynter find her freedom, or will she be doomed to remain a monster forever?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6166\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/TBR.png?resize=113%2C51\" alt=\"TBR\" width=\"113\" height=\"51\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.goodreads.com\/book\/show\/30626391-type-x\">Goodreads<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-6156\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/01\/Buy-Links.png?resize=158%2C45\" alt=\"Buy Links\" width=\"158\" height=\"45\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Type-Project-W-R\/dp\/1537157752\/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1474850337&amp;sr=8-1&amp;keywords=type+x+ma+phipps\">Amazon<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellys-review.jpg\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-10982\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellys-review.jpg?resize=300%2C96\" alt=\"kellys review\" width=\"300\" height=\"96\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellys-review.jpg?resize=300%2C96 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/twinsietalk.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/11\/kellys-review.jpg?w=428 428w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Everything you could want from a Dystopian novel&#8230;and more. This picks up two years after Utraxenopia. In the first book Wynter doesn\u2019t know exactly what is happening to her but sacrifices herself in order to save the ones she loves. After two years she has become the war weapon the DSD wanted. She has buried all her memories but things are coming to light once again. She has been saved from the DSD but only to find out that PHOENIX is not what it once was. What is the price of full control? Jenner, Ezra and Wynter are moving forward unraveling secret after secret and trying to piece this jigsaw puzzle together. What do you do when both sides are going after the same thing the same way?<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDeath hangs like a fog, its presence nearly tangible in the molecules around me. In truth, I\u2019m envious of its victims. Death would be an escape from this repetitive war and the nightmare that\u2019s become my every waking moment.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegardless of the visions\u2014regardless of the multiple choices that stand in front of me\u2014 the only certain path for me in this life is death.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre my visions set in stone? Will they happen no matter what I do? Or will they only occur because I\u2019ve seen them? By bearing witness to the future, do I accidentally set the world on that course? Am I the cause? Or am I the effect?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Wynter is constantly being plagued with what\u2019s the right path and what\u2019s the right answer. She is so back and forth on how to do the right thing. They get an unexpectd ally and unravel some incredible secrets.
