    For fans of The Hunger Games, Battlestar Galactica, and Blade Runner comes the first book in the Partials Sequence, a fast-paced, action-packed, and riveting sci-fi teen series, by acclaimed author Dan Wells. Humanity is all but extinguished after a war with Partials—engineered organic beings identical to humans—has decimated the population. Reduced to only tens of thousands by a weaponized virus to which only a fraction of humanity is immune, the survivors in North America have huddled together on Long Island. But sixteen-year-old Kira is determined to find a solution. As she tries desperately to save what is left of her race, she discovers that that the survival of both humans and Partials rests in her attempts to answer questions about the war's origin that she never knew to ask. Playing on our curiosity of and fascination with the complete collapse of civilization, Partials is, at its heart, a story of survival, one that explores the individual narratives and complex relationships of those left behind, both humans and Partials alike—and of the way in which the concept of what is right and wrong in this world is greatly dependent on one's own point of view.

  • Alle drei Romane der »Partials«-Saga in einem Band: Den Krieg gegen die Partials, künstlich erschaffene Menschen, haben nur wenige tausend echte Menschen überlebt. Sie haben sich seitdem nach Long Island zurückgezogen und versucht, eine neue Gesellschaft aufzubauen. Die 16-jährige Kira begibt sich mit einer Gruppe Verbündeter nach Manhattan, ein Gebiet, das die übermächtigen Partials beherrschen. Als es den Menschen gelingt, einen der Partials zu fangen, wird Kira dazu auserwählt, ihn zu untersuchen und zu befragen. Und dabei entdeckt sie, dass nicht nur die Menschen, sondern auch die Partials vor dem Untergang stehen – und beide mehr gemeinsam haben, als sie ahnten.
