<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>In a post-apocalyptic future, 15-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.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><b>Ann Aguirre's thrilling young adult novel <i>Enclave </i>is the story of two young people in an apocalyptic world--facing dangers, and feelings, unlike any they've ever known. </b> <p/>New York City has been decimated by war and plague, and most of civilization has migrated to underground enclaves, where life expectancy is no more than the early 20's. When Deuce turns 15, she takes on her role as a Huntress, and is paired with Fade, a teenage Hunter who lived Topside as a young boy. When she and Fade discover that the neighboring enclave has been decimated by the tunnel monsters--or Freaks--who seem to be growing more organized, the elders refuse to listen to warnings. And when Deuce and Fade are exiled from the enclave, the girl born in darkness must survive in daylight--guided by Fade's long-ago memories--in the ruins of a city whose population has dwindled to a few dangerous gangs.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"[Enclave] is a young adult dystopian novel and has been compared to the hit series <i>The Hunger Games. </i>To say we're excited is a major understatement." --<i>ElleGirl.com</i> <p/>"In her first young adult novel, Aguirre (the Sirantha Jax series) has created a gritty and highly competent heroine, an equally deadly sidekick/love interest, and a fascinating if unpleasant civilization. This series is likely to hold considerable appeal for fans of <i>The Hunger Games</i>." --<i>Publishers Weekly</i> <p/>"<i>Enclave</i> is dark and thrilling, fast-paced and intense. With some graphic and gross imagery and a hard look at a post-apocalyptic world, Aguirre has taken themes from Scott Westerfeld and an assortment of zombie literature and created something that is very much her own--and a very engaging read." --<i>RT Book Reviews</i> <p/>"This well-paced zombie-esque adventure in an urban wasteland will keep fans happy." --<i>Kirkus Reviews</i> <p/>"Aguirre's young adult debut is a gripping survival story set in an apocalyptic future. . . . This is a tense, action-packed dystopia with intriguingly gray characters." --<i>Booklist</i> <p/>"Deuce's passion for life, even in her bleakest moments, is contagious, and that passion exemplifies the nebulous force that has driven all of these individuals to persist in the face of awful options." --<i>The Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books</i></p><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><p><b>Ann Aguirre</b> has been a clown, a clerk, a savior of stray kittens, and a voice actress, not necessarily in that order. She grew up in a yellow house across from a cornfield, but she now lives in a terracotta adobe house in Mexico with her husband and two adorable children. The post-apocalyptic novel <i>Enclave</i> is her first book for young adults. She also writes the romantic science fiction series about Sirantha Jax, starting with <i>Grimspace</i>, as well as urban fantasy and paranormal romance. As Ava Gray, she writes paranormal romantic suspense.</p>
