It's been an extremely long time coming but Poison was finally released today! I am equal measures proud and petrified but looking forward to the journey ahead.
Poison Synopsis:
Since the night her mother was murdered, sixteen-year-old Rory Gray has known one truth: There are no good Seeders.
In
post-apocalyptic Australia, the scientists known as Seeders have built a
Citadel surrounded by food-producing regions and populated with
refugees from the wars and famine. To maintain their control, the
Seeders poisoned the land and outlawed the saving of seeds.
It’s
been six years since Rory graced the Seeders’ circus stage as the Wind
Dancer and still the scars on her body haven’t healed. Even worse are
the scars on her heart, left by a Seeder boy who promised to protect
her.
Now the Seeders are withholding supplies from Rory’s region
for perceived disobedience. Utilising the Wanderer knowledge she
received from her mother, Rory must journey to the Citadel through
uninhabitable terrain to plead for mercy.
However, the Citadel
isn’t as Rory remembered. The chief plant geneticist is dying and
rumours fly that the store of viable seed is dwindling. The Seeders are
desperate to find a seed bank they believe Rory can locate, and they
will stop at nothing to get it.
To defy the Seeders means death. But Rory has been close to death before--this time she’s learned the value of poison.
Recommended for fans of The Hunger Games, strong protagonists, circuses and nature!
