Harms parents have sheltered him from the world outside his village all his life, and for good reason. Twice a year, the Guardian Regime, who enforce the Chancellors rule, select boys from each village to serve under the commander. Harm is terrified of being selected, knowing that if selected, his family will suffer and most likely face execution for not being able to pay their taxes.
Freedom and a dark-haired girl with brilliant blue eyes are what he dreams of, what he craves. Just before his seventeenth birthday, Harms parents arrange for him to be Blended with one of the village girls, an arranged marriage he doesnt want.
And when the regime starts taking more and more boys from their village homes, Harm rebels. Every action has a consequence, and he pays for his dearly at the hands of the Guardians. Now more than ever he wants to change his world. Harm is desperate to overturn the regime, and end the Chancellors rule.
