Egmont, 2010. 266 pgs. Young Adult

In 2097, men are a small and controlled minority in a utopian world ruled by women, and fourteen-year-old Kellen must fight to save his father from an outbreak of the virus that killed ninety-seven percent of the male population thirty years earlier.

This was an interesting dystopia looking at the differences between men and women and if the world would be better with a predominately female population. The action was fast and the story very interesting. I would recommend to those that have enjoyed other teen dystopias such as Unwind by Neal Shusterman or Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer.
