Arc of a Scythe Quiz

Arc of a Scythe, usually just called "Scythe", is a book trilogy created by Neal Shusterman. It was made to show a major problem with a utopia: overpopulation.

To prevent this issue, a group known as the "Scythedom" is made. The members, called "scythes" (who are all named after famous deceased people), are able to "glean" (permanently kill) people of their choice to deal with this problem. How well do you know this trilogy? Find out here! *WARNING: THERE ARE SPOILERS IN THIS QUIZ. TAKE AT YOUR OWN RISK, FOLKS!*
