The Journey
by J. Taylor


The road ahead stretches for hundreds of kilometres, and this time Charlotte and Anna will need more than luck to survive—they will need to summon all the resilience, determination and willpower they possess. Every ounce of strength will be tested as they struggle through a land they have never encountered, a vast and unforgiving place where the cold bites hard and the paths seem endless. Behind them lurk shadows—pursuers who will drag them back if given the chance. Or worse, silence them. What began as a desperate escape has become a journey driven by the pull of home, and although every step is haunted with uncertainty, even in their bleakest moments, the will to go on pushes Charlotte and Anna forward. For beyond the mountains and frozen fields lay their country, where men and women of the Resistance stand against the enemy—unyielding, determined to defend what is theirs.


“With vivid prose, strong characters, and thought-provoking themes, The After is both a gripping survival story and a poignant meditation of on what it means to grow up in a broken world.” —Jeyran Main, Editor of Book Review Magazine 09
