A Silver Sunrise—Out Now!
My new book, A Silver Sunrise, is out now!
A Silver Sunrise is a new YA dystopian novel about lost teenagers trying to escape an authoritarian country. Riddled with plot twists, worldbuilding and action, this is easily my biggest, best and most ambitious novel yet.
This is the first of three books in The Tagandia Trilogy. While I am releasing each book one at a time, there is no specific reading order. Once all three are out, the trilogy can be read in any order with each new reading providing more information and perspectives on the larger story as a whole—the story of Tagandia.
Enjoy the synopsis of A Silver Sunrise!
The nation of Tagandia is one of the most isolated countries in the world. Surrounded by mountains on the west and sea everywhere else, it is a very difficult place to get into… or out of.
Eight years ago, the president of Tagandia was assassinated by revolutionaries. Vice-president Lewis Gentry quickly assumed control of the country, launching an initiative to rid Tagandia of revolutionaries and quash the rebellion before it began. He was successful and the people remained silent for eight years.
Now, on the eve of Gentry’s 3000th day in office, hope is sparking. Hope that a life can be had outside of Tagandia. A life of freedom.
18-year-old Jordan thinks it’s normal to have his town routinely attacked by gangs of raiders. Being the eldest of four children, he often finds himself having to protect his younger siblings from dangers. But when he learns that it may be possible to escape Tagandia and live in a country of freedom, he takes the chance and leads his family on an expedition that will decide their fate.
