Book Overview
"A storyboarded-for-the-camera tale of techno-terror... the action in this novel moves at a fast clip " -Kirkus Reviews
The world is a deeply troubled place-years of crippling unemployment, a collapsed economy, and rampant crime have left people feeling desperate.
But Adam Wesley and his friends don't care about that. They've finished high school and are looking forward to a carefree summer of parties, camping, and their first real taste of freedom.
Fate has another plan for them.
On their first outing, the friends encounter a reconnaissance robot-a "bot"-with disastrous results. One of them is grievously wounded, kicking off a desperate race against time to get help before it's too late.
When they finally make it back to the city, the streets are overrun. Martial law is in effect. People are being loaded onto buses and taken to transition camps. Anyone caught in the open is pacified and detained-not all will survive.
Adam and his friends go underground, joining Skip, a brilliant but eccentric hacker who has built a tech hideout called The Nest-a Faraday cage hidden in the maintenance tunnels beneath the city. Using antiquated technology-dial-up modems and bulletin board systems-the friends begin to organize.
Together, they will fight desperately to survive, unintentionally planting the seeds of a resistance that will become more important than any of them can imagine.
Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins and Robopocalypse by Daniel H. Wilson. A gripping young adult dystopian adventure about friendship, courage, and survival in the face of a robot uprising.
Of Courage and Sacrifice is Book One of the Bot Trilogy. Also available in audiobook and paperback.
