Book Synopsis
The Icons came from the sky. They belong to an inhuman enemy. They ended our civilization, and they can kill us. Most of us. Dol, Ro, Tima, and Lucas are the four Icon Children, and the only humans immune to the Icon's power to stop a human heart. Now that Los Angeles has been saved, things are more complicated - and not just because Dol has to choose between Lucas and Ro, the two great loves of her life. Fleeing to a resistance outpost hidden beneath a mountain, Dol makes contact with a fifth Icon Child, if only through her visions. When Dol and the others escape to south Asia in search of this missing child, Dol's dreams, feelings and fears will meet in an epic showdown that will change more than just four lives -- and stop one heart forever.In the riveting sequel to Icons, filled with heart-pounding action and compelling romance, bestselling author Margaret Stohl explores what it means to be human and how our greatest weakness can be humanity's strongest chance at survival.
Review Quotes
Praise for Icons:
"Fans of Stohl's Beautiful Creatures series will find many of the same elements here -- paranormal romance, a fast pace, and intriguing characters -- but within a distinctly science-fiction setting. The strong messages of questioning authority, daring to resist injustice, and loyalty to one's group will resonate with teens who loved The Hunger Games."--Booklist
"An action-packed, smart thriller that shows an excitingly different side of Stohl's writing and opens up a fascinating new world."--Holly Black, New York Times bestselling author of the Modern Faerie Tales series
"Dol's narrative voice is particularly vivid . . . Will keep readers engrossed."--Publishers Weekly
"Epic in scale and exquisite in detail -- a haunting futuristic fable of loss and love."--Ally Condie, #1 New York Times bestselling author of the Matched trilogy
"I love this book. It's raw and riveting, a scorched-Earth future vision that feels frighteningly real. It's full of passion and deep truths and the kind of power that people only find when they're driven far, far past their limits."--Lev Grossman, New York Times bestselling author ofThe Magicians
"Margaret Stohl is a genius when it comes to characters and their emotions. ICONS had me hooked on the first page, and I can't wait to read the sequel!"--Richelle Mead, New York Times bestselling author of the Vampire Academy and Bloodlines series
"Stohl's dystopia is well-written and well-structured. Action balances with character and world development, and interspersed documents reference deeper mysteries, gradually hinting at how the 'icon children' came to be. The multi-layered characters are mostly sympathetic, believable flawed and driven..."--VOYA
