Books with title Pilgrims

Water is life, and the Gods have poisoned that life.Nothing but a few slimy slugs with bodies capable of cleansing poison can be eaten while the rest of the world waits to kill if consumed. Slug blood and meat are plenty for one, two, maybe three people to forage and survive eating while moving through the empty world, but Haven hugs a city of five hundred thousand thirsting men, women and children, a city requiring the Gods' Gift to purify its water and ensure survival. Pilgrims are those individuals trained to leave Haven and journey to the temple where Gods still speak to man and bestow that merciful gift of purity. Seventeen-year-old Vesper has yearned all her life to become a Pilgrim, and now, her time has come. But danger other than poisoned water and dead lands lurks beyond the high walls of Haven, for heretics roam the empty world, hunting Pilgrims with hopes of destroying the five remaining Holy Cities.
