The third installment of Scott Westerfeld's New York Times bestselling and award-winning Uglies series—a global phenomenon that started the dystopian trend.
Tally thought they were a rumor, but now she's one of them. A Special. A super-amped fighting machine, engineered to keep the uglies down and the pretties stupid.

But maybe being perfectly programmed with strength and focus isn't better than anything she's ever known. Tally still has memories of something else.

Still, it's easy to tune that out—until she's offered a chance to stamp out the rebels of the New Smoke permanently. It all comes down to one last choice: listen to that tiny, faint heartbeat, or carry out the mission she's programmed to complete. Either way, Tally's world will never be the same.

      The final installment in this futuristic teen series has 16-year-old Tally Youngblood being made to work as a Special Circumstances agent on behalf of the government she has come to distrust. Carine Montbertrand creates the right level of drama at all the right moments in this twisted plot. Although the unique story demands a unique approach, Montbertrand goes a little overboard in her character portrayal. The gravelly voice she occasionally employs makes it difficult to distinguish between male and female characters, and the other pitches she chooses are downright odd. Still, teen listeners will enjoy the philosophical issues explored in the story. B.H. (c) AudioFile 2008, Portland, Maine
