Overview
In this mesmerizing YA fantasy mash-up of The Road meets The Amazing Race, one girl chooses to risk her life in a cutthroat competition in order to win her freedom.
In Lanoria, Outsiders, who don’t have magic, are inferior to Enchanteds, who do. That’s just a fact for Astrid, an Outsider who is indentured to pay off her family’s debts. She serves as the surrogate for the princess—if Renya steps out of line, Astrid is the one who bears the punishment for it.
But there is a way out: the life-or-death Race of Oblivion. First, racers are dosed with the drug Oblivion, which wipes their memories. Then, when they awake in the middle of nowhere, only cryptic clues—and a sheer will to live—will lead them through treacherous terrain full of opponents who wouldn’t think twice about killing each other to get ahead.
But what throws Astrid the most is what she never expected to encounter in this race. A familiar face she can’t place. Secret powers she shouldn’t have. And a confusing memory of the past that, if real, could mean the undoing of the entire social structure that has kept her a slave her entire life.
Competing could mean death…but it could also mean freedom.
- High-Stakes Fantasy: To win her freedom, Astrid must survive a brutal competition where assassins lurk around every corner and her own memories have been wiped clean.
- Magic and Royalty: As an Outsider, Astrid is supposed to be powerless. But when a magic she can’t explain surges to life, it threatens to expose a secret that could get her killed—or tear down the throne.
- Enemies to Lovers: He’s a familiar face from a past she can’t remember and an opponent in a race where only one can survive. Trusting him is impossible, but resisting the connection between them might be even harder.
- Oppression and Rebellion: In a world that divides the magical from the powerless, Astrid serves as the princess's surrogate—a life of punishment and servitude. Her fight for freedom could spark a rebellion that changes everything.
