ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In Scythe by Neal Shusterman, death has been virtually eliminated, creating a world without natural mortality. To maintain population control, scythes are tasked with "gleaning" individuals, ensuring death's continuation.

The narrative follows Citra and Rowan, who are unwillingly chosen as apprentices to a scythe. As they learn the art of taking life, they face moral and ethical challenges. The story questions whether it is possible to wield the power of life and death without succumbing to bias and corruption. The narrative explores themes of power, responsibility, individuality, and conformity within the Scythedom.
