It centers around both Kira and a partial called Samm, who each have roles to play to help develop a cure for RM that is killing humanity. Ruins is the third and final book in the Partials Sequence series by Dan Wells. “A fine and frightening postapocalyptic thriller.” (Kirkus Reviews, about The Partials Sequence)
I couldn’t put it down.” (Pittacus Lore, #1 New York Times bestselling author of I Am Number Four, about The Partials Sequence) “A thrilling sci-fi adrenaline rush, with one of the most compelling and frightening visions of Earth’s future I’ve seen yet. Wells has recombined familiar dystopian elements, added original ones, and thrown in dashes of dry wit to create a sprawling, action-packed medical thriller full of big ideas and exciting reversals.” (Wall Street Journal, about The Partials Sequence) The winner will be the last one standing, and his prize is the final and most terrible solitude this world has ever known.“Science (fiction) at the end of the world done right.” (Kirkus Reviews) They are in a desperate race toward the final death. Too selfish to live in peace, and too proud to stop our wars long after they ceased to have any real meaning.The only thing left of any value on this entire planet is their lives, but that’s not worth anything while the other guy still has his, so they kill each other. Not because it was time, not because the world moved past us, but because we, as a people, were fools. Human thought-the glorious zenith of five billion years of evolution-will go out like a candle, gone forever. The world will forget that we were ever here. Rivers will keep flowing, the sun and the moon will keep turning, vines will creep up across the cars and the concrete. The world will go on, the planet and the life that lives on it.
“Do you know what’s going to happen when the world ends? We call it the end of the world, but it’s only the end of us.
