![]() In other words, she becomes an assassin, killing other Active Alts for money. West unable to deal with her grief and scared to face her own Alt when the time comes becomes a striker. To me, that just gives more incentive to fight the system, but again no! Wrong! I thought this was a perfect set-up for the main characters to revolt against the system…but NO!!! Instead during the very beginning, Luc, West’s older brother who is still Idle, is killed during a friend’s active battle. If you fail to kill your Alt at the end of thirty-one days, you both die. ![]() This code acts as a tracker and disappears only when you or your Alt is dead. When you become Active, a numerical code tattoos itself on your eyes so everyone knows that you are active. Every person born in Kersh is born with an Alt, a genetically identical twin, who at some point between the ages of ten and twenty you will be instructed to kill. There were some aspects I really liked about this story and some I really didn’t understand and loathed. The world West lives in is a world that only the strong survive so that the city can be protected at all times. Once active, West will have one month to kill her Alt, a genetic twin raised by another family. ![]() Much like The Hunger Games and Divergent, Dualed follows West Grayer, a fifteen year old Idle waiting for her status to go Active. ![]() Dualed by Elsie Chapman is book one of a new YA dystopian series. ![]()
