Publisher Description
Perfect for fans of Divergent, this series is about a civilization where negative emotions have been erased, creating a world of mindless drones where only those with fury can survive.
Eighteen-year-old Josephine Luquet wakes up naked and covered in blood on the same day every year—when the blood moon is full. Josi has not responded to the Cure—an immunization against anger mandated by the government—and believes herself to be a threat to others.
Then she meets Luke. Luke has had the Cure but seems different from the other "drones"—and he's dead set on helping Josi discover the truth about herself before the next blood moon.
But time is running out. Is Luke willing to risk his life to be near her? Does he truly understand what violence she is capable of?
Raw and full of passion, Fury is a story of love in a dystopian world, and how much we are willing to forgive in the struggle to remember our humanity.
APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
Sydney-based author Charlotte McConaghy triumphs with this astonishingly well-written trio of novellas—available in one satisfying bundle—that make up the first instalment in a larger trilogy. In an apocalyptic future where humans have been forcibly cured of anger, a wiry teenager named Josephine languishes in an insane asylum. As Josephine shares harrowing details about her experiences, we’re drawn into a frightful world where strong emotions have been demonised—and a new species of bloodthirsty beings is ascending. In the midst of this darkness, McConaghy spins a tender and breathtakingly romantic love story.
