Friday, December 2, 2022 - For this week’s First Chapter Friday installment, the word nerd, Amanda Zieba, reads aloud chapter 1 of the thrilling space saga Alone Out Here by Riley Redgate. If you are looking for an edge of your seat, conflict packed adventure, this is it! Be sure to stay for the entire video so you can discover this week’s mystery quote as it is revealed one… word… at… a… time.
** Fair warning, the publisher recommends this book for ages 14+, however there is no swearing or mature content in chapter 1 or read aloud in this video. **
Book blurb: The year is 2072. Soon a volcanic eruption will trigger catastrophic devastation, and the only way out is up. While the world’s leaders, scientists, and engineers oversee the frantic production of a space fleet meant to save humankind, their children are brought in for a weekend of touring the Lazarus, a high-tech prototype spaceship. But when the apocalypse arrives months ahead of schedule, First Daughter Leigh Chen and a handful of teens from the tour are the only ones to escape the planet. This is the new world: a starship loaded with a catalog of human artifacts, a frozen menagerie of animal DNA, and fifty-three terrified survivors. From the panic arises a coalition of leaders, spearheaded by the pilot’s enigmatic daughter, Eli, who takes the wheel in their hunt for a habitable planet. But as isolation presses in, their uneasy peace begins to fracture. The struggle for control will mean the difference between survival and oblivion, and Leigh must decide whether to stand on the side of the mission or of her own humanity.
