IT'S ROMEO AND JULIET MEETS MAD MAX MEETS X-MEN, WITH A LITTLE BIT OF BLADE RUNNER CHEERING FROM THE SIDELINES On an island junkyard beneath a sky that glows with radiation, a deadly secret lies buried in the scrap. Seventeen-year-old Eve isn't looking for trouble-she's too busy looking over her shoulder. The robot gladiator she spent months building has been reduced to a smoking wreck, she's on the local gangster's wanted list, and the only thing keeping her grandpa alive is the money she just lost to the bookies. Worst of all, she's discovered she can somehow destroy machines with the power of her mind, and a bunch of puritanical fanatics are building a coffin her size because of it. If she's ever had a worse day, Eve can't remember it. The problem is, Eve has had a worse day--one that lingers in her nightmares and the cybernetic implant where her memories used to be. Her discovery of a handsome android named Ezekiel-called a "Lifelike" because they resemble humans--will bring her world crashing down and make her question whether her entire life is a lie. With her best friend Lemon Fresh and her robotic sidekick Cricket in tow, Eve will trek across deserts of glass, battle unkillable bots, and infiltrate towering megacities to save the ones she loves ... and learn the truth about the bloody secrets of her past.

Jay Kristoff
JAY KRISTOFF nasceu em Perth (Austrália). Passou boa parte da vida trancado no quarto com pilhas de livros ou reunido em torno de uma mesa mal iluminada rolando dados poliédricos. Sim, ele jogava Dungeons & Dragons. Formou-se em Artes. E agora, tem a honra de figurar na lista de autores best-sellers do New York Times. As séries Lotus War e The Illuminae Files deram a ele o reconhecimento da crítica e a indicação a diversos prêmios. É vencedor do Aurealis Award. Suas obras de Sci-fi e fantasia já foram publicadas em mais de 25 países. As crônicas da quasinoite foi sua estreia no Brasil. Do alto de seus mais de dois metros de altura, Jay está surpreso com tudo isso. Vive em Melbourne com sua agente secreta-assassina kung-fu (também conhecida como esposa) e Samwise, o cachorro mais preguiçoso do mundo. Ele não acredita em finais felizes.
