It was ash on fingertips and vast. Stepping upon it gave the impression that it had come not from below, buffed by millions of years of wind slicing against rock, but rather from above; that, perhaps, it had drifted down and settled here. This is the post-apocalyptic sandscape that Calix and Annora must navigate - when they're old enough to join the scavenger crews outside of the domes, that is.

With Deke Allinson on their tail and Annora more exposed then she has ever been, can Elissa hold it together long enough to reach safety? Or, is the fire burning all around her a reflection of her own desire for revenge? There's talk on the street, too. The authority have rounded up the remaining protesters and mean to make an example out of them. However things end, one thing is for sure - it will never be the same again.

The city is divided; which side do you stand on? The authority’s? Or the lowcases? Across Neon, the elite and the protesters are rising to battle for their future; for their children and the generations to come. To keep down the boot, or to rise from the darkness. Just what is freedom anyway when the walls of your oppression are everywhere you look?

Hosted by bestselling author, Seth Adam Smith, FORWARD is a motivational podcast filled with stories, ideas, and awe-inspiring interviews of people who refused to quit.

Xi Chen can see beyond the surface level of the work-sleep cycle and the shackles imposed on its population by the city of Neon. He's joined a group of like-minded individuals seeking to force change from the ground up. Only, when change comes, it's not exactly what they had in mind.

Life on the plains is tough, dangerous, and just plain boring. Elissa dreams of breaking the monotony and winning the Liberty Trials: a hoverbike race around the perimeter of the plains with entry to Neon City at stake. Her town sits in the shadow of the enormous blister of Neon’s dome, within reach and yet forbidden. If she could only win…everything would change. If only the stranger hadn’t appeared. If only she could get Quintessa, one of the three Queens, off her back. If only the murderous Rohen could get exactly what he deserved. So many questions. So many variants.
