Sweven - Hardcover

by Andrew Matarazzo (Author)

SWEVEN continues the haunting saga of The BEDLAM Trilogy, where survival is never enough and the cost of hope grows heavier with every step.

Months after the outbreak shattered their world, Willa takes the lead as a new voice of resilience. Determined to find her brother Malik, who disappeared into the contamination zone, she joins FORESIGHT-a program that sends survivors back into the ruins in exchange for supplies and protection. But her mission is personal, not political. Every path she walks takes her deeper into a fractured world of shifting dangers: undead creatures that grow more feral with every mutation, ruthless factions battling for scraps of power, and hidden truths waiting beneath the rubble.

Along the way, Willa finds unlikely companions: allies hardened by loss, and fellow survivors who carry their own secrets. Together they navigate betrayal, corruption, and the chilling realization that the outbreak may not have been the end, but only the beginning of something far worse.

Blending science fiction intrigue, survival horror, and the raw intensity of coming-of-age drama, SWEVEN deepens the trilogy's themes of resilience, betrayal, and the fragile bonds of chosen family. It is a story of endurance and discovery-of love amid ruin, trust in the face of despair, and the courage to confront conspiracies that stretch far beyond survival.

For readers drawn to dark, character-driven YA and adult crossover dystopian fiction, SWEVEN is both a continuation and a transformation, pushing the BEDLAM saga into darker, deeper waters.
