Escaping Ishtar

By: Strydom, Shaun

COLOR DIVIDES. POINTS DECAY. REBELLION UNITES.

Seventeen-year-old Ayris has never set foot beyond the domes of Ishtar, a city where life isn't measured in years-it's measured in points.

Everyone is born with one hundred, losing one each birthday. Break a law, and you'll lose more. What happens when you lose them all?

Ayris, a Gray, lives in Zone Two, just a step above the lowest rank. She dreams of climbing higher to a life with more freedom and to be with her best friend Stellah, a Blue, in Zone Three.

But then, suddenly, she's losing points way too fast. The unfairness grows, and whispers of rebellion spread through the domes.

Will she take the risk and join the fight for freedom? Where will that lead her and the people she cares about?
