"Look," she whispered, shining the spotlight around them. In every direction the powdery red soil rose and fell in zigzagging lines coming straight for them. They were only several meters away and fast-approaching.
"Guys, we've got company."
Born to convict parents on Mars, Megan and her friends-known as the Wonder Kids-were evacuated to Earth during a prisoner rebellion ten years ago. Now fourteen, she is sent back as a pawn in a deadly mission to save the colony from an attack by killer robotic spiders and lure out the mysterious scientist who raised her. Meanwhile, on Earth, the rest of the Wonder Kids come up against corrupt government officials and trained assassins and can't be sure who to trust-not even each other.
Faced with cryptic dreams, a secret prophecy, and enemies on both sides, Megan must battle to discover the truth about her parents and save the beleaguered colonists on Mars, while her friends fight just to stay alive.
Über den Autor / die Autorin
As a friend and former workmate, I have known Brian for over thirty years. We have shared some of the same interests such as tramping in the New Zealand Southern Alps and a passion for serving our workmates as workplace delegates.Brian has accounting and management qualifications and an MA(honours) in psychology and has used this knowledge to good advantage in his work and personal life.After Brian retired, I expected him to do the usual things such as lawn bowling and gardening. I never expected him to write books. Brian's first four books were well written short stories using his experiences in life such as the Christchurch earthquakes, mountain adventures and overseas travel through the Pacific, Europe and Asia. Brian has now also written four novels and with ten grandchildren has also found time to write three children's books.I am very impressed with how his writing style has developed in these novels.Andrew Thirringwebsite: brian-d-wilson.com
