New Earth: Dystopian Survival Fiction

By Kathy Shanks

She fought for her chance to survive. She'll fight harder to find her sister.

Kasey has secured a rare place at TranPrep, humanity's last training ground before the journey to New Earth, the only planet left with a chance of survival. For most, acceptance means safety, purpose, and a future. For Kasey, it means one thing: finding her sister Charli.

Charli went ahead months ago, but all contact stopped until a mysterious message arrived, shaking Kasey's belief in everything she's been told. Now, each day inside TranPrep feels like walking a tightrope. She must master gruelling survival drills, live under the constant gaze of the instructors, and navigate fragile alliances with new friends while keeping her guard up against rivals who seem determined to see her fail.

The closer she gets to the truth about Charli, the more cracks she sees in TranPrep's perfect facade. Secrets ripple beneath the surface, whispers of things not meant to be spoken about, and choices that grow more dangerous with every step.

Kasey came here to find her sister. But reaching her might mean choosing between the truth and her place on humanity's last ship out.

Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games and Divergent, New Earth is a gripping YA dystopian thriller about loyalty, truth, and the price of survival.
