Sinopse

In Extras , the final installment of the bestselling Uglies series, Scott Westerfeld revisits the same dystopian universe, where everyone is surgically modified at age 16 to achieve aesthetic perfection. But this time, the author's scathing critique focuses on the public/private divide.

The era of physical perfection is over, and in post-liberation society, citizens are connected to the city's interface and share all kinds of information on their individual channels. Technology, beauty, behavior—everything can be published. But content is the least important thing, as long as it secures a top-ten spot in the fame rankings. In this new world, Aya Fuse, a 15-year-old Ugly Girl, is still an Extra. In other words, in this complex new social system, you're either known or just an unimportant extra.

At 451,611th on this list, Aya is far behind her own brother, Hiro, who is among the top celebrities. But in this world, you don't need to do anything significant to be successful: just find someone who does and tell everyone. For Aya, the discovery of a group of mysterious girls who dare to surf magnetic trains could be the perfect opportunity. A story so good it will pique everyone's interest, including someone long gone.

Extras confirms Westerfeld's talent for creating worlds and societies so utterly different and yet so intrinsically similar to today's. A brilliant parody of the modern world's obsession with fame.
