Availability Information

We source books from suppliers in Australia and overseas. For books we don't currently have in stock, the time it takes to get them from our suppliers can vary widely - from a few days to a few months - so we check each book with each supplier to determine the expected time it will take to be supplied to us.

We then advise you accordingly. If the time taken to get any book is too long for you, you can let us know and we will cancel or adjust your order, and refund as required.

Series: New World

In a post-COVID world a hundred years in the future, wars and drought have created food scarcity, and a tyrannical world government has taken over. Teenager Kim has been imprisoned with her family in a labour camp for ten years, but she manages to escape to a safehouse on the outskirts of the city. There, an elderly woman introduces her to a community of dissidents who have become self-sufficient while hiding in the mountains.

Kim becomes active in the resistance, learning to fight the dangerous government-created humanoid robots used to control the citizens. When she learns that her sister Christina has been forced into a detention centre where people are brainwashed, she must hatch a daring plan to break in and save her before it's too late.
