Scythe

by Neal Shusterman · Arc of a Scythe series

Death has been conquered, and scythes are humanity's answer to overpopulation—trained killers sanctioned to end lives at random. Two teenagers, Citra and Rowan, are chosen as apprentices to a scythe, but only one can earn the robe. A high-concept dystopia that asks what happens when mortality becomes a profession.
