The draft began on June 21, 2042. For any college-bound seventeen-year-old, the thought of throwing away a lifetime of dreams to fight a war you don't fully understand in a nightmare-turned-reality. For Delainie Trenelli, it means the end of her college plans, aspirations to attend medical school, and hopes for having a few years for peaceful self-discovery. An incredibly intelligent, athletic, and creative young woman, Delainie struggles to find a place in the army, a place where her independent thinking, innovation, and refusal to blindly defer to authority make her an undesirable subordinate. When she blatantly disobeys orders in the field to save a stranger and her squad, she is deferred to a medical unit where her talents can be put to better use. Working in the medical tents and living in the barracks, Delainie is forced to confront the horrors of war, the terrifying truths about humanity, and questions about her own identity. Maybe, somewhere between the shellings and bodies, she can discover what she wants in life, who she really wants to be, and-if she's lucky-find solace with someone who understands.

Where there's a will there's a way, and then there's Rem. A girl who lost it all after writing a book. Her writing style persuaded different groups to think and believe different things about her beliefs. The odd way her words touched the nation brought unity, which in turn made her the most revered woman in the United States. So much so that people sought her out to be the leader of the rebellion. Just shy of her twenty-first birthday, the once crazy college student leads a group of rebels through dangerous territory in an effort to escape to safer ground, only to face mountains of hardship in between. As the rebellion turns to full civil war, Rem tries her best to hold onto the last possession of her past life that she has, while juggling the relationships she builds on her journey. War changes every participant, and that's no exception for the Rebel princess.
