Specials is an awesome ending to the Uglies trilogy. In it Tally Youngblood is learning to be a Special in the special circumstances unit. A Special is a person who gets a surgery akind of super human, their eyesight is amazing, their hearing is better than a "hawk's". The features of a special is different too. Their eyes are decribed as wolf-like, their skin is flawless, and the sound of their voice is changed.  The author describes their voices as sharp. The special is also equipped with razor sharp nails and teeth as well as superior musculature. People who have seen Specials  are generally scared or creeped out. This particular group that Tally is in is called the cutters (they are special specials) their job is too keep the "cure" from coming to the city, to keep an eye on the smokies, and keep the amount of runaways to a minumum. Tally is not alone her friends are right by her side. Untill the "cure" gets a hold of the other cutters.
