"I thought I was entering a brave new world of freedom but I walked right into the arms of soldiers I thought were there to protect me." Nine years after the Great Quake, Erika Moore is still a refugee in the Las Vegas FEMA camp, where landowners make the rules. The refugees named her their Savior after she led a riot against the Feds, but it failed, and months in an iron box under the desert sun have worn her down. The landowners have voted to make every refugee age thirteen and older infertile, and her youngest son, Daniel, is next in line. When camp director Mathew Tweed offers the family a place on the Rescue Squad, it looks like a way out, but it comes with a price. Tweed keeps the younger children in the camp as insurance, and their trainer, Sergeant Patrick Bennet, turns out to be the soldier who watched over Erika in the box. Erika and her husband, Vince, try to fit in for their children's sake, but a family secret could put all their lives in danger. Without Land is Book 3 of the nine-book Changing Earth Series, which also includes two companion novels (Swenson and Virgis) and an audio drama. It is a strong pick for fans of The Giver and The Hunger Games. Author Sara F. Hathaway, a self-defense instructor and host of The Changing Earth Podcast, builds real survival skills into every book. "It may be a survival story, but it is also about love and family." (Larry Landgraf, Amazon reviewer)
