If you enjoyed following Citra and Rowan as they navigated the deadly trials to become Scythes, you'll be gripped by Red Rising. Darrow’s journey is driven by a powerful goal: to infiltrate an elite society and spark a revolution from within. Like Scythe, it’s a race against time with every action pushing the plot forward and raising the stakes.
Scythe explores the complexities of morality through Citra and Rowan’s struggle with the ethics of death and power. In Never Let Me Go, you’ll find another haunting exploration of what it means to be human, as Kathy and her friends grapple with their purpose and make heart-wrenching, ambiguous decisions about life and love.
Citra and Rowan’s transformation from ordinary teens to figures of influence and conscience is a highlight of Scythe. In The Knife of Never Letting Go, Todd Hewitt must confront hard truths and grow rapidly as he faces danger and moral dilemmas in a strange, hostile world. Both stories deliver powerful, believable character growth in the face of adversity.
If the relentless momentum and high-stakes conflicts of Scythe kept you turning pages, Legend will do the same. June and Day’s cat-and-mouse chase through a rigid dystopia is filled with swift twists, tense action, and impossible choices, echoing the breathless pacing you loved.
Much like the world of the Scythedom, the community in The Giver seems perfect on the surface but hides profound questions about freedom, death, and what it means to be alive. Jonas’s journey to uncover truth and confront a sterile, controlled society will resonate if you found Scythe’s philosophical exploration of mortality and meaning compelling.
