'Humans saved bees from extinction...
and created the deadliest threat we've seen yet

'The loss of bees was heralded as the sixth wave of extinction. Economies crashed. Ecosystems collapsed. Wars were waged as countless starved. Luckily, humans were able to alter bees' genetic code to deal with the hazards of pesticides and disease.

'Inadvertently making their venom fatal to humans.

'River grew up in the Green Zone, a haven for those who are Immune. Bees are free to fly, pollinating their prolific crops. Echo was raised in the Dead Zone where bees are exterminated so vulnerable humans like her can live. Stealing from the heavily guarded Green Zone is a necessary part of survival.

'River and Echo are both in their seventeenth year. They're both about to have their immunity tested. And they're both about to have their futures forever altered.

'Ultimately, they're about to become part of the final fight for human survival. Are bees really the enemy they need to defeat? Or is mankind a far greater threat...' (Publication summary)

'In a world devastated by global warming, the factions in the Outlands are warring. People are hungry. Desperate. And aware that survival comes at a price.

'The Tournaments have been announced. Deadly games that can only have one survivor. Games that will unite the factions as one true leader seizes power of all the remaining lands. The People of Cy have spent their lives training to make sure they win. The People of Fairbanks are considered as weak as they are doomed. Nobody expects they’ll enter….

'But for the Tournaments to take place, each faction must be invited. Including Fairbanks.

'When twin warriors, Lexis and Raze, set out with the token invite, they know they’ll find a crumbling city. But they’re surprised to find another set of twins, so much like themselves yet so very different. Winter and Gray don’t know how to fight, but they sure know how to run.

'As a desperate chase through the decaying city begins, discoveries will be made, and lives will be lost. Each twin will need to learn as much about each other as they do about themselves.

'In an environment that’s as harsh as the people who live in it, these four teens know they’re the future. The problem is that only one of them will get to see it.'

'Only the chosen shall seek.

'Sam, Hawk, Luca and Mercy.

'Four teens no longer sure what they’re seeking. Four teens no longer sure whether it can be found.

'They were supposed to be building a new world. One where the Earth is respected as much as the people who depend on it for survival. One where the benefits of Askala could be shared by all.

'Except instead of bringing people together, Sam, Hawk, Luca and Mercy are more divided than ever. Sam has returned to Askala, learning exactly how vulnerable her home is. Hawk is trapped, forced to fight for his life to save those around him. Luca has returned to the Outlands to right his wrongs. Mercy is determined to find out the truth at any cost.

'In the struggle to repair the world from the ravages of global warming, the fight to reunite is going to be their greatest battle yet. Because no matter where they are, treachery is far closer than they ever realized.

'Living has never been more deadly.'

'The Seekers have been chosen. The Newlands await.

'Four young lives now have to choose where they belong. To choose what and who they will fight for.

'Because no matter where they turn, the legacy of the past is inescapable. The Newlands already has settlers. The Outlands has a new leader. And danger has arrived in Askala.

'Hawk, Sam, Mercy and Luca must work together or be swept away by a world even more divided than themselves. As the fight for survival becomes a fight for the future, as hearts yearn and secrets are protected, loyalties will be tested.

'Can they build a world like nobody has seen before? One where people can unite for the good of Earth?

'Or has the war they never wanted already begun?'

'Only the chosen shall seek.

'Sea levels have receded, exposing fertile, untouched land. Virgin soil that everyone in a ravaged world is willing to fight for.

'Askala knows it needs to stake a claim if they’re going to continue healing the Earth. To do that, a team of Seekers will be sent to colonize it…and assimilate those who don’t understand.

'This year, the testing won’t end at the Proving. Passing is no longer just about having a kind heart and a sharp mind. To spread Askala’s word, Seekers also need to survive in this harsh new land. New tests will determine who’s strong and tough enough to be the best of the best.

'Sam is determined to prove her father’s vision is what the world needs. Mercy is convinced she’ll be able to win the Outlanders over with her smile. Hawk believes he was destined to be a Seeker, but will his gentle soul be his undoing? Luca knows he’s never fitted in and isn’t about to try.

'Who will pass and have the honor of representing Askala? And how will a society founded on peace succeed in a world where violence is power? Four teens are about to find out.'

'Only the chosen shall breed.

'Nova, Kian, Dex, and Wren.

'Four teens reunited, only to discover their world has been torn apart.

'Askala has been seized by a new order. A cruel army that rules with greed and fear. An army that seems impossible to defeat.

'Forced into the forest, the people struggle to survive using all they’ve learned from the harshness of the Outlands. Bound, Unbound and Remnant alike are going to have to create unity in a world founded on division if they are to win.

'Will they discover a way to carve a better path for the future? A future about more than just fighting to survive. A future where all can thrive, not just the chosen few.

'In the greatest battle for Askala yet, sides will be chosen and loyalty will be tested. Is it possible that love and intelligence were the key all along?'

'Only the chosen shall breed.

'Nova, Kian, Dex, and Wren.

'Four divided hearts. Four teens no longer sure what they’re fighting for.

'Their society was meant to mold human evolution. Their future, and that of Earth, was to be decided by the kindest and smartest. Askala was supposed to be a beacon of hope in a flooded, desecrated world.

'Except the line between the Bound and Unbound is blurring. The Outlands is no longer some distant, faceless world. And the Remnants have a leader who knows more about them than any Remnant before.

'In a world devastated by global warming, the fight for survival has always been deadly. Now, the battle for Askala is about to define the very future of humanity.

'But...does the greatest threat lie within?'

'Only the chosen shall breed.

'Four teens must face the fallout of the Proving. Three have made it through. One has not.

'Nova. Kian. Dex. Wren.

'Four lives defined by the outcome. Four lives who thought the Proving was the most difficult test they would ever have to face.

'They all assumed Askala was safe, but a link to the Outlands has been established and a Remnant invasion is now a threat. In a starving, damaged world, Askala has what others want.

'Except the fight for survival is far more complicated than right or wrong, or us and them. It's about humanity versus Earth.

'As bonds are fractured and new connections are forged, the question becomes - how do you fight for your world, but also your heart?'

'Humans now live in a super greenhouse. Seas have risen. Oceans have acidified. And the fight for resources is deadly. To ensure nothing of this magnitude ever happens again, only those with enough intelligence and heart will earn the right to bear children and heal the earth.

'Nine teens must face the tests of the Proving to decide who will be Bound to this new order. Four of them will challenge the system in ways even they can't imagine.

'Nova. The gentle soul who has everything to lose.

'Kian. The champion of this new world who's determined to succeed.

'Dex. The one who'll learn nothing is as it seems.

'Wren. The rebel who wants nothing to do with any of it.

'As the fight to breed becomes a fight to survive, rules are broken, and hearts are captured. This Proving won't just decide the future of this new order, it will decide the future of humankind.'
