ONE FOR SORROW, TWO MEANS DEATH.
In the Barrenlands of Wrath, no one dies of old age. Kyle is used to its harsh laws, but the cold-blooded separation of identical twins and execution of the 'evil twists' at the Annual Peace Fair shocks him.
When Kyle himself is betrayed, he flees for his life with the reluctant help of Sky, a rebel pilot with a hidden agenda. As the hunt intensifies, Kyle soon realises that he is no ordinary runaway, although he has no idea why. Fighting to learn the hideous truth, their reluctant, conflicted partnership will either save them - or kill them.
And here's some selected praise for THE SIGN OF ONE:
"A thrilling YA sci-fi adventure reminiscent of Hunger Games and Star Wars, The Sign of One is a fantastic page-turner with great characters in Kyle and Sky."
Booktrust
"Pitch-perfect ... The best Young Adult read so far this year"
Mr Ripley's Enchanted books
"Sometimes you don’t need to reinvent the wheel, just make a really, really good wheel. Debut novelist Eugene Lambert merrily delivers a whole bunch of YA tropes in a classic three-act structure with The Sign of One, but he does it with style, wit, pace and a strong central premise. The Sign of One is wonderfully gruesome in places and benefits from scarred, laconic and selfish but ultimately likeable heroes. 4 stars"
SFX Magazine
"Definitely more than just another YA dystopia/sci-fi read"
Scene Sisters
“Strongly-imagined, rhythmical, clear, strange”
David Almond, author of Skellig
“Vivid and action-packed. Stakes are very high”
Julia Green, author of Blue Moon
“Powerful, compelling, accessible and confident story, set in a fragmented world of the future”
Steve Voake, author of Blood Hunters
“An exciting, action-packed page turner”
Marie-Louise Jensen, author of The Lady in the Tower
