Fragments Book Cover Enlarge Book Cover

Author Dan Wells is back with the sequel to the sci-fi blockbuster Partials, which Pittacus Lore called a “thrilling sci-fi adrenaline rush, with one of the most compelling and frightening visions of Earth’s future I’ve seen yet.”

After discovering the cure for RM, Kira Walker sets off on a terrifying journey into the ruins of postapocalyptic America and the darkest desires of her heart in order to uncover the means—and a reason—for humanity’s survival.

Dan Wells extends his richly imagined, gritty world and introduces new memorable characters in this second installment in the Partials Sequence.

The cure was only the beginning. Now Kira’s quest for answers will take her from the ruins of Manhattan to the heart of a dying continent.

  • YA Science Fiction Adventure: Kira’s journey is far from over. Her search for the truth behind the Partials and the plague will lead her across the haunting ruins of a shattered America.
  • Secrets and Lies: The more Kira learns about ParaGen, the company that created the Partials, the more she questions her own identity and the loyalty of those closest to her—including the Partial soldier, Samm, who travels by her side.
  • A Dying Race: While humanity struggles to survive, the Partials face their own extinction from a built-in expiration date. Can Kira find a way to save both species before it’s too late?
  • Enemies to Allies: Forced to rely on Samm, a soldier from the army that destroyed the world, Kira must navigate a fragile and dangerous alliance that could blossom into something more… or shatter into betrayal.

Biography

Dan Wells is the author of the Mirador series (Bluescreen, Ones and Zeroes, and Active Memory), as well as the New York Times bestselling Partials Sequence and the John Cleaver series—the first book of which, I Am Not a Serial Killer, has been made into a major motion picture. He has been nominated for the Campbell Award and has won a Hugo Award and three Parsec Awards for his podcast Writing Excuses. He plays a lot of games, reads a lot of books, and eats a lot of food, which is pretty much the ideal life he imagined for himself as a child. You can find out more online at www.thedanwells.com.
