Celestine North is a fugitive in a state that brands its citizens for moral error, and Perfect picks up her story with the machinery of that state turned fully against her.
Cecelia Ahern continues the world of Flawed with a faster plot and a wider view of how the Guild maintains its authority. Alliances form under pressure, the cost of resistance is counted honestly, and the closing stretch resolves the questions the first book left standing.
Themes it works through:
• The concluding half of the Flawed duology for young adult readers
• A society that punishes imperfection through public marking
• Questions of conformity, conscience and organised resistance
• Romance threaded through a dystopian plot
Suited to teenage readers and to adults who follow dystopian fiction, available at Boipoka.
