| Aguirre, Ann. Enclave. New York: Feiwel and Friends, 2011. Print. |
The freaks are breathing down your neck and you have to report the horrible news back to the Enclave that you've found what everyone dreads - the annihilation of another Enclave by the Freaks, something the Elders said would never happen.
You are Deuce, newly named at the ripe old age of 15 because you are one of the few who survived. You are a proud Huntress, your partner is the foundling boy named Fade. You are afraid of his seditious ideas, but he survived in the tunnels without an Enclave, and you trust his instincts. To your horror, you are slowly realizing his rants against the Elders hold truth.
Safe!! You've made it back and report your findings to the Elders, who tell you to keep quiet, or else. Knowing to keep the Enclave safe the group must move, and when Fade protests the order of silence, you stand by his side.
You both are thrown out of the Enclave for speaking against the Elders. Now you must survive on your own, you and Fade, together. He says you both can head to the surface.. that its safe. Its your only hope, cuz anything is safer then these Freak-filled tunnels. You agree to head topside... if you can get there first...
Run, girl, run!
Abstract (thanks to OCLC World Cat): "In a post-apocalyptic future, fifteen-year-old Deuce, a loyal Huntress, brings back meat while avoiding the Freaks outside her enclave, but when she is partnered with the mysterious outsider, Fade, she begins to see that the strict ways of the elders may be wrong--and dangerous."
