Synopsis

Survival is just the beginning in this action-packed middle grade adventure that’s Mad Max for kids.

Thirteen years ago, the world ended. A deadly chemical called Waste began to spread across the globe, leaving devastation in its wake. Millions died. Cities fell into chaos. Anything the Waste didn’t kill, it mutated into threatening new forms.

Kobi has always believed he and his dad were the only survivors. But when his dad goes missing, Kobi follows his trail―and discovers a conspiracy even deadlier than the Waste itself.

Nonstop action, chilling dangers, and edge-of-your-seat twists make this gripping, fast-paced read perfect for young readers who love survival adventures like Gary Paulsen’s Hatchet and dystopian series like Jeanne DuPrau’s City of Ember.


What happens when the only person you trust is gone, and the world is more dangerous than you ever imagined?


  • A High-Stakes Survival Story: Kobi must navigate the treacherous, overgrown ruins of a city, facing dangers he was never prepared for, all to find the one person he has left.
  • Mutated Creatures and Killer Drones: From monstrous, Waste-infected wolves to automated CLAWS drones that hunt from the sky, the forgotten city is full of things that want Kobi gone―permanently.
  • Kids with Superpowers: Kobi isn’t the only one with strange abilities. He’ll meet other kids who have been changed by the Waste, forcing him to question everything he knows about who―and what―he is.
  • A Dangerous Conspiracy: His dad’s disappearance is no accident. Kobi is thrown into a world of secrets and lies, where the truth behind the fall of civilization is more shocking than the ruins themselves.
