Sinopsis	Extras, the final book in the Uglies series, is set a couple of years after the "mind-rain," a few earth-shattering months in which the whole world woke up. The cure has spread from city to city, and the pretty regime that kept humanity in a state of bubbleheadedness has ended. Boundless human creativity, new technologies, and old dangers have been unleashed upon the world. Culture is splintering, the cities becoming radically different from each other as each makes its own way into this strange and unpredictable future . . . One of the features of the new world is that everyone has a "feed," which is basically their own blog myspace tv channel. The ratings of your feed combined with how much the city interface overhears people talking about you determines your social status--so everyone knows at all times how famous they are. As Scott Westerfeld explored the themes of extreme beauty in the first three Uglies books, now he takes on the world's obsession with fame and popularity. And how anyone can be an instant celebrity. WESTERFELD SCOTT Scott Westerfeld is the author of twelve New York Times bestsellers, including the multimillion-selling Uglies series. Published in thirty-five languages and loved by generations of young readers, Uglies has now been adapted as a feature film starring Joey King, streaming on Netflix in late 2024. The New York Times called the novels, "A superb piece of popular art." The Uglies series continues in the Impostors books, all four of which are out now. Westerfeld is also known for the Leviathan trilogy, a seminal work in the steampunk genre. Published in more than twenty countries, all three books are being adapted as an anime series by Orange Studio in Japan, streaming on Netflix worldwide in 2025. Westerfeld's books have won many awards, including the Philip K. Dick Special Citation , Indie Choice, and Locus, and been named New York Times Notable and ALA Best Books of the Year. His work has also won the Victorian Premier's, Aurealis, and Ditmar awards in Australia, and the Grand Prix de l'Imaginaire in France.
