In Saving the Imperfect
A bastard, an alcoholic and a murderer - all have committed an equivalent crime. *** Layne Marks has always been a failure in the eyes of his family. The black sheep in the shadow of his more successful brother. At twenty-six, he still can't keep a stable job nor accommodation. Just another average person anywhere else in the world - but not in Eumain. In Eumain, there is no place left for imperfection. Here, a homeless person and a bank robber will both receive the same punishment - they will be declared as Rejects and taken away, never to be seen again. The citizens can only guess what will happen to them. One widespread rumour has it, that the Rejects are exiled into a remote, long-abandoned land, not fit for anything else - just like themselves. There, all the criminals of different degrees, have to depend on each other in order to survive in this harsh and dangerous place, infested with never before seen beasts. Layne Marks has always been reminded that it was only a matter of time before he would cross the line of what was seen as not perfect enough to live in Eumain.Lengkap
