About this ebook
The Hunger Games meets The Road in a stunning debut novel from a powerful new voice in YA fiction. *Shortlisted for the Branford Boase award 2016*
Adam Stone wants freedom and peace.
He wants a chance to escape Blackwater, the dust-bowl desert town he grew up in. Most of all, he wants the beautiful Sadie Blood.
Alongside Sadie and the dangerous outsider, Kane, Adam will ride the Blackwater Trail in a brutal race that will test them all, body and soul. Only the strongest will survive.
The prize? A one-way ticket to Sky-Base and unimaginable luxury.
And for a chance at this new life, Adam will risk everything . . .
Good luck - and may you live to see the sky.
'Pacy and gripping, with echoes of Mad Max and a dash of Brave New World.' Sally Green, author of Half Bad
