About this product

Product Information

"Special Circumstances":The words have sent chills down Tally's spine since her days as a repellent, rebellious ugly. Back then Specials were a sinister rumor -- frighteningly beautiful, dangerously strong, breathtakingly fast. Ordinary pretties might live their whole lives without meeting a Special. But Tally's never been ordinary.And now she's been turned into one of them: a superamped fighting machine, engineered to keep the uglies down and the pretties stupid.The strength, the speed, and the clarity and focus of her thinking feel better than anything Tally can remember. Most of the time. One tiny corner of her heart still remembers something more.Still, it's easy to tune that out -- until Tally's offered a chance to stamp out the rebels of the New Smoke permanently. It all comes down to one last choice: listen to that tiny, faint heartbeat, or carry out the mission she's programmed to complete. Either way, Tally's world will never be the same.

  • Becoming the Monster

    This is the third of Scott Westerfeld's Uglies trilogy. Tally, our 16 year old protagonist, has become what she hated and feared in both Uglies and Pretties-she's part of Special Circumstances. This appeals to her for a number of reasons: she lives in the wild, has super physical powers, a close bunch of friends (the Crims she joined in Pretties) and she can operate outside the law, which she now helps to enforce. Along with Shay, the girl that shares her birthday (and is now the Crims' leader), they "hunt" for those that are recruiting for the "New Smoke." It was strange to hear Tally taking orders from Shay; her attitude was rather subserviant, so the Specials operation affected her mentally as well as physically, but she begins to develop and finally overcomes the "Specials program" ...

  • Specials: last book in the trilogy by Scott Westerfeld

    I finally received the third and final book from the Uglies, Pretties, and Specials trilogy written by the brilliant Scott Westerfeld. I LOVED this trilogy so much that I have since gone back and reread them all! I enjoyed the characters that Westerfeld introduces in his books. Tally is Westerfeld's main character in the trilogy. It is amazing to watch her transformation as she contemplates good vs. evil, right vs. wrong, along with turning "16". In Tally's world, 16 is a very, very special age! Specials is a great book to end Westerfeld's trilogy. I would recommend anyone that likes young adult fiction purchase these wonderful books! I purchased Specials because I couldn't put the first two books down!

  • Interesting

    This is the third book to the uglies series. It wrappes it all up. But I was dissapointed by it. I loved the first one so much but the last two felt like the plot was the same. And the ending was not complete to me. It just ended i thought. I wanted more. More explanation of it. More talking. Basically i felt it was unresolved.

  • specials was the slowest of the four but still worth it

    This set is actually four books. It isn't a trilogy as stated by others. I thought that specials was the only bad book of the entire set but if you don't want to feel lost when you read extras you should read this one. The set in itself was outstanding and I would recommend it to anyone young or old.
