The end of the world is coming. How
or when, scientists can't agree upon. For decades, Earth's best line of defense
has been a team of young soldiers known as the Apocalypse Five, forced into
virtual reality simulations to train for Doom's Day. But, this is no game.
Death on the grid is brutally final and calls up the next in a long line of
cadets. Stationed aboard the AT-1-NS Starship, the A5 are celebrities thrust
into the limelight by a calling they didn't choose. All it takes is one
unscheduled mission, showing seventeen-year-old team leader Detroit a harsh and
unfathomable reality, to shake the A5's belief in all they thought they knew.
After questioning people with the power to destroy them, the team is framed for
a crime they didn't commit and marked for death. Now, the hunt is on. Can the
Apocalypse Five expose the truth the starship would kill to keep hidden? Or,
will their bravery end in a public execution?
Editorial Review: "Fans of The
Hunger Games will love this fresh dystopian thriller, featuring a band
of instantly loveable characters that must fight together in a sci-fi twist, in
and out of simulations for their freedom in reality." —BookTrib
