Synopsis (Goodreads)

A modern day thrill ride, where a teen girl and her animal companion must participate in a breathtaking race to save her brother's life—and her own. 

Tella Holloway is losing it. Her brother is sick, and when a dozen doctors can't determine what's wrong, her parents decide to move to the middle of nowhere for the fresh air. She's lost her friends, her parents are driving her crazy, her brother is dying—and she's helpless to change anything.

Until she receives mysterious instructions on how to become a Contender in the Brimstone Bleed. It's an epic race across jungle, desert, ocean, and mountain that could win her the prize she desperately desires: the Cure for her brother's illness. But all the Contenders are after the Cure for people they love, and there's no guarantee that Tella (or any of them) will survive the race.

The jungle is terrifying, the clock is ticking, and Tella knows she can't trust the allies she makes. And one big question emerges: Why have so many fallen sick in the first place?

Victoria Scott's breathtaking novel grabs readers by the throat and doesn't let go.

What do you think??

  1. Looks interesting! I keep seeing the promo for this one - I guess a lot of people are involved in the publicity. :-)

    1. I agree! There has been a bit of publicity, its just a shame it won't be released until March.

  2. To be honest, I don't like the cover. There's nothing on it that screams "pick me! pick me!"
    In fact, it looks like a self-published cover (no offense to self-pub covers).
    I'll pick it up solely because it's by Victoria Scott! She's such a sweet-heart. :)

    1. I only recently heard of it as well, it sounds very different to her other YA :-)

    2. This sounds really good! It sounds a little bit like Kresley Cole's book, A Hunger Like No Other (technically the second book in her Immortals After Dark series). The story started out with all of the paranormal characters out on a Hie looking for three artifacts that would win them a ring to grant them wishes It's my second favorite book in the series (behind that sexy beast's Lothaire's). ;)

      I'd love to read a YA version though and definitely one from Victoria Scott. But 2014? Whyyyyy?

    3. I think we'll be seeing this one around a lot until the release date, 2014 is aaages away!

      I haven't read the IAD series but I've wanted to for a long while! it definitely sounds like something I'd enjoy.

  8. Love the font treatment for this one! But the burning feather (or anything with a feather) seems to be quite the cliche for YA covers lately. ;)

    1. Me too Blythe but I think its a tad large - the feather reminds me of the cover of Antigoddess by Kendare Blake ;)
