ill., br. I bambini hanno bisogno degli adulti. Due bambine molto diverse intraprendono un viaggio per vendicarsi degli adulti che le hanno ferite.
br. Sono passati vent'anni da quando America Singer ha partecipato alla Selezione e conquistato il cuore del principe Maxon. Ora, nel regno di Illéa, è tempo di dare inizio a una nuova competizione. Il Paese infatti è in difficoltà: il popolo è inquieto e infelice, la tensione cresce ogni giorno e la situazione è sempre più precaria. Solo una Selezione potrebbe risollevare gli animi dei sudditi e alleggerire l'atmosfera. E questa volta toccherà alla futura erede al trono, Eadlyn, scegliere tra i trentacinque pretendenti arrivati a Palazzo. Il re e la regina però non hanno fatto i conti con il carattere indipendente e determinato della giovane principessa, che non ha alcuna intenzione di assecondare questa farsa e lasciare decidere agli altri della sua vita. L'idea che la Selezione possa regalarle la stessa favola d'amore dei suoi genitori non la sfiora nemmeno. Ma scoprirà presto che il suo lieto fine non è poi così impossibile come aveva pensato...
