The second book in a breathtaking new series from Beautiful
Creatures co-author Margaret Stohl The Icons came from the sky.
They belong to an inhuman enemy. They ended our civilization, and
they can kill us... ..most of us. Dol, Ro, Tima, and Lucas are the
four Icon Children, the only humans immune to the Icon's power to
stop a human heart. Now that Los Angeles has been saved, things are
more complicated - and not just because Dol has to choose between
Lucas and Ro, the two great loves of her life. As she flees to a
resistance outpost hidden beneath a mountain, Dol makes contact
with a fifth Icon Child, if only through her visions. When Dol and
the others escape to Southeast Asia in search of this missing
child, Dol's dreams, feelings and fears collide in an epic showdown
that will change more than just four lives - and stop one heart
forever. In this riveting sequel to Icons, filled with nonstop
action and compelling romance, bestselling author Margaret Stohl
explores what it means to be human and how our greatest weakness
can be humanity's strongest chance at survival.
Private Cory Reddick is haunted by his past. As a teenager, he
had a different name: Geoff Anders. Back then, he testified against
a vicious gang, and his family was hidden by the witness protection
program. Now armed with a new name and superior reflexes, Cory
starts over with Sol System Defense. Their newest ship, "c"-Surfer,
needs his talents.
The "c"-Surfer test flight program is in trouble. The spaceship
is beautiful, but it has its share of problems. Cory's
extraordinary reflexes could be the answer to saving "c"-Surfer,
but his past may be catching up with him. The trouble he had with
the gangs on Station One now threatens his friends, his family, and
his crew.
Vengeful gang members will stop at nothing to get to him,
including sabotaging his ship and murdering the people he loves
most. It might be in his best interest to leave in order to protect
his friends-but doing so could mean the end of "c"-Surfer. Either
way, Cory's decision will have repercussions, and the consequences
could be deadly.

In the ruins of North America, the Laws and Ways of the Sentinel
control everyone and everything. The Sentinel's rule is enforced by
The Black Sentry, his ominous ever-present police force. Every
aspect of the villagers' lives is dictated by the Sentinel's
orderly inescapable plan--including the Winnowing, the armed combat
each boy is required to undergo on his sixteenth birthday. Daman
Adkins is worried about his impending Winnowing, but he's even more
troubled by everyone's blind acceptance of the Sentinel's
inflexible regime. With the help of Brita, the brilliant girl he
admires, and a slave, Xander, he tries to learn more about the
fabled Resistance--the only people brave enough to stand up against
the Sentinel. When Daman meets a Rebel on the run, he is forced to
choose between the dull but predictable life he has known all his
life--and the slim chance for a better world.
