Aria lives in a world where the smarteye takes them to virtual spaces where they spend most of their time. They live in Pods with no touch to the outside world where "savages" live (people without the smarteye technology). Reminds me semi of the book Feed if any of you have read it where technology really controls their lives and makes them oblivious to what's going on around them. 
 Aria thinks she's safe until one day she gets mixed up with the wrong consul mans son and gets thrown out. Then she's left to defend for herself all alone in the outside world. 
 Perry lives in the outside world also known as Death Shop. Where he has the scent and sight of a wolf. Except it's known that they have powers and he's a seer and a scire. 
 The spoilers section just FYI is more of a recap place for me to read over when I read the next book in the series. It's a jumbled mess of thoughts I write out of important events while reading so I don't forget haha. 
 (view spoiler)[ 
 Soren is PSYCHO! Catching the forest on fire then attempting to kill Aria. 
 Once Aria wakes up she immediately is taken to her meeting with Sorens dad. Like...what about the other Consuls? It would be a meeting with psycho kids dad! Then of course she gets the chance to go see her mom who she's been freaking out over this entire time. NOT! We're going to throw you in the desert wasteland alone to fend for yourself for being a snitch. 
 Poor Perry on the other hand his payback is getting his nephew taken from him. Only to find out his brother SOLD his own nephew and tribe members for food?! What a traitor ! 
 Eventually they meet up of course after Sorens dad throws her into the desert and Perrys brother casts him out for losing his son. Adventure time! 
 Songbird message from her mother that she was half outsider, her mother studied outsider children, and that DLS (Soren's reason for going crazy) was spreading in the PODS. (hide spoiler)]
