Dauntless is a strange book, to me it seems like a mix of the hunger games and the demon king. This book is about when a girl named Beatrice. There are 5 types of people in this book, the erudites (The extremely smart people) the abnigations (the selfless people) the amnity, candor, dauntless (the courageous) Beatrice has grown up in an abnigation home is supposed to choose one of the two possible choices that she is allowed to pick. The Abnagations or the Dauntless. This book is diffidently strange, it shows an alternative world where everything from the mindset to the very feeling of the cities, this appears to take place in a version of Chicago. Beatrice must make a tough choice and in the end chooses dauntless. The dauntless are supposed to be fearless. There first test is to jump onto a moving train, that is an example of how they are supposed to act. But before she chose Something strange happened, on her test results (to become one of the 5 types of people) she received an inconclusive, also known as a divergent...this is supposedly very dangerous and some people are out to hurt her because of this

The drowned cities
The Drowned cities is the second book of the ship breaker cities. This. Are story is about what happened to a half man named tool. Half men are a crossbreed of a man, a tiger, a wolf, a lion and many other dangerous wild animals. Tool has escaped death many, many times, but that appears to be coming to an end. Tool has become weekend by the on going fight between him and his captors, they thought him to be dead after his fight with a mammoth of a alligator, and tool himself thought that he was going to die, but that has all changed. Mahili a castoff girl and her friend named mouse find the monstrous creature. They save by using the very few medications that dr.malfouz and Mahili have left. After they revive him there town is attacked by army of children called the UPF. They are hunting for tool. Mouse gets captured and Mahili and Tool must go get him back, mahili owes him, he saved her.... My favorite character is the half man tool. You get to see what other intelligent creatures think of the affaires that go on with humans and also you get a new kind of perspective from him. The author does a great job conveying what has happened to the earth since it started to decay, for instance New Orleans has turned into the drowned cities. If you like strange books with a good dose of adventure I would definitely consider reading this one
