SACRIFICE PROTECTS THE COLLECTIVE. Population is tightly controlled, and \"third children\" like Hunter Karlsen are taken from their families to pay the debt their existence incurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHunter has spent his life trying to prove he was worth that sacrifice. When the Althing names him a candidate for the Sidthing-nine children whose \"clear, unclouded voices\" supposedly keep the Collective from repeating old mistakes-it feels like his chance to finally belong.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThen his instructor slips him a forbidden book.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts worn pages command, \"\u003cem\u003eSeek first the Kingdom\u003c\/em\u003e,\" and speak of a true King above every council, a Judge whose law no surveillance net can rewrite. As Hunter digs deeper, he begins to uncover who this King is, what it really means to seek His Kingdom, and how far the Dome will go to keep that truth from its citizens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eCaught between the system that owns his life and the King he has only met in forbidden pages and hushed voices, Hunter must choose what will define him: the authoritarian Collective that says his worth is what he can do for it, or the unseen King who calls even a surplus child worth dying for.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Reyburn Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":47967054921879,"sku":"9798295728679","price":1431.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9798295728679.webp?v=1782913031","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/out-of-the-mouths-9798295728679","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
