When he welcomes her and her siblings into his mansion, Antigone sees it for what it really is: a gilded cage, where she is a captive as well as a guest. Passing into the Archive should be cause for celebration, but with her militant uncle Kreon rising to claim her father's vacant throne, all Antigone feels is rage. Antigone’s parents-Oedipus and Jocasta-are dead. Without the Archive, where the genes of the dead are stored, humanity will end. “I’m cursed, haven’t you heard?” Outside the last city on Earth, the planet is a wasteland.
In this gripping and atmospheric reimagining of Antigone, #1 New York Time s bestselling author Veronica Roth reaches back to the root of legend and delivers a world of tomorrow both timeless and unexpected.
