By far, the fastest and funniest of the series.
Kirkus Reviews
The Burnouts is the third book in the Quarantine series and paints a graphic picture of a dystopian society. The break-neck pace keeps readers engrossed as the characters fight for their lives. The Burnouts also elegantly draws into light the ideas of social roles, character, and morality, making readers think about the world around them. This book is a very exciting read and is certainly worth checking out.
