Neal Shusterman
The New York Times bestselling Arc of the Scythe series continues with “captivating…thrilling” (School Library Journal) stories that span the timeline. Storylines continue. Origin stories are revealed. And new Scythes emerge!
There are still countless tales of the Scythedom to tell. Centuries passed between the Thunderhead cradling humanity and Scythe Goddard trying to turn it upside down. For years, humans lived in a world without hunger, disease, or death with Scythes as the living instruments of population control.
Neal Shusterman—along with collaborators David Yoon, Jarrod Shusterman, Sofía Lapuente, Michael H. Payne, Michelle Knowlden, and Joelle Shusterman—returns to the world throughout the timeline of the Arc of a Scythe series. Discover secrets and histories of characters you’ve followed for three volumes and meet new heroes, new foes, and some figures in between.
Gleanings shows just how expansive, terrifying, and thrilling the world that began with the Printz Honor-winning Scythe truly is.

Critic reviews
"Author and narrator Neal Shusterman invites listeners back to the thrilling Arc of the Scythe series with this short story collection featuring multiple narrators. His warm, companionable delivery reveals secrets and origin stories of existing and new characters. Narrator Greg Tremblay’s familiar vocal versatility and Fiona Hardingham’s English accent and humorous tone make the two stand out in this collection. The final story features Tremblay, Megan Tusing, and Nicky Endres together in a fascinating mental conversation between Cirrus, the AI offspring of the Thunderhead, and one of the many survivors from Earth. This audiobook collection spans the entire timeline of the creation and downfall of the Scythes and is essential for fans of the original series."—AudioFile Magazine
Featured Article: Excellent Dystopian Listens Like The Hunger Games
The popularity of Suzanne Collins’s The Hunger Games trilogy and its film adaptations has paved the way for so many great dystopian books and series in YA, imagining harrowing worlds where teens must fight for survival and define what life means to them. The enduring popularity of the series has proven that dystopian stories and the sometimes-dark futures they imagine are endlessly fascinating to our imaginations.

There are different kinds of stories here, different genres, that all benefit your total understanding of the world.
I would love to hear more stories here if they continued to flesh out the total history we are vaguely aware of.
Neal is a fantastic writer, and I really value his perspective, and overall messaging. There’s beauty in all of these stories.
Only thing worth noting is that, in comparison to Greg Tremblay, he and his son Jarrod are not the best readers. I found it difficult to stay in tune with the story Jarrod reads in particular due to Scythe’s having similar names and Jarrod’s lack of clarity as a narrator.
Greg and company do a GREAT job and as you get to the end of the collection they incorporate the voices of others throughout the collection into one single story. It’s awesome design, and it was very satisfying.
All Scythe fans should read this.
I’m looking forward to incorporating it in my next re-read of the trilogy.
