Produktbeschreibung
In a post-apocalyptic wasteland, all that remains is HOPE. Creek is a deaf boy, a thief, vagral, and a wily survivor of the ruins of what used to be America. He couldn't be more different from Lucinda, a headstrong resident of an elite enclave, with a device in her brain that connects her to all the knowledge in the world, both a blessing and a deadly curse. When fate throws Creek and Lucinda together with a ragtag group of misfits fleeing a vicious warlord, they must fight for their lives to forge a home on the New Frontier. HOPE is the thrilling follow-up to the critically-acclaimed sci-fi standalone JOY. An action-packed adventure with heart, it dives deep into our longing for a place to call home, and our need to connect with each other when the world is falling apart around us. Follow Creek and Lucinda as they reach for a better life in a chaotic world full of battle robots, warring factions, mind-controlling viruses - and hope.
