The second book in the middle-grade dystopian fantasy series that Kirkus Reviews calls “The Hunger Games meets Harry Potter,” by New York Times bestselling author Lisa McMann.

Following the life-altering events at the conclusion of The Unwanteds, the stark world of Quill and the magical haven of Artimé are now home to whoever wants to live there, whether they are Wanteds, Unwanteds, or Necessaries.
     In Artimé, Alex Stowe and his friends continue to hone their artistic magical spells while welcoming newcomers, wondering how long this peace between Quill and Artimé will last. Alex is stunned when Mr. Today comes to him with a very special request—one Alex questions his readiness for, until circumstances offer a dramatic answer.
     And back in Quill, Aaron Stowe, Alex’s twin, faces a very different path. Devastated by his loss of status after Justine’s defeat and seething with rage toward Alex, Aaron is stealthily planning his revenge and return to power.
     Alex and Aaron’s separate stories proceed with suspenseful pacing, colliding in a stunning climax that elevates sibling rivalry to epic proportions and leaves the fate of both worlds hanging in the balance.

I loved this book! It is about how Lani and Sameed get captured in a mystyresly silent isaland and become slaves. Meanwhile Artim'e has dissipeard and it is up to Alex to restore Artim'e and become the new leader. This book is for ages 7 and up if you are a good reader. It is a fantasy action packed and emotionol book full of adventure. I the character Sameed got a little more bulky because he was a slave and he was working on the ship building. He got more brave because he wasn't with his friends and he was stranded on this island that wasn't home. He became more caring because him and Lani got separated and that made him feel sad, so that made him feel like needed to be with his friends. This book is the second unwanted book so be sure to read the first one first. Hope you love this book.

Aaron is full of rage and hate because of Artime and Alex. I think that Alex was brave to face his brother when he knew that Aaron was cold hearted.

This book is so good. It's about Mr. Today and his childhood. The first book was also really good. I reccomend both of these books.

this book is really good I suggest this book if you have read the harry potter series or the hunger games it would probably be just right if you like fantasy it's really sad Aaron has a lot of rage against his brother , artime , and the island that mr. today grew up on

This book is incredible. It's the second book in the series: Unwanteds. This book is so sad. I wanted to cry during most of the book. The book is based on how life is now that the gate is open and how Quill and Artime come together. Aaron is building a rebellion against Artime and the island where Mr.today grew up.

i need to get this book so bad i bet its arsome.;0;0;0

I am going to read it after I finish the second one
