The Survivor Wants to Die at the End
Two strangers, each with their own complicated relationship to Death-Cast, help each other learn to live.
Paz Dario stays up every night, waiting for the Death-Cast call that would mean he doesn’t have to keep faking his way through this lonely life. After a devastating day, Paz decides he’s done waiting around for Death-Cast. If they say he’s not dying, he’ll just have to prove them wrong. But right before Paz can die, a boy saves his life.
Alano Rosa is heir to the Death-Cast empire that encourages everyone to live their best lives, but he doesn’t feel in control of his own existence thanks to his father. And with a violent organisation called the Death Guard threatening Alano, his End Day might be closer than he thinks. It’s time to live.
Fate brings Paz and Alano together. But they must survive the tragic trials ahead so no one dies at the end.
This book contains themes of suicidal ideation and self-harm that some readers may find difficult, including graphic depictions of self-harm and suicide.
Recommended for readers 16+
