Book: Land of Fences

Summary: There are lights on the horizon. Electricity. Order. A return to civilisation.
After three years cut off, living by their wits in the bush, Finn and Kas might at last find a life without danger and threat.
But the tracking device beneath Kas’s skin begins to buzz—she can’t ignore that she is a Siley, a slave, and will never be free. And when the search parties arrive, with brutal force, Finn and Kas face a new reality—a world divided by fences, a world where they can’t be together.
But after everything they’ve been through, they’re not about to play by the rules.


What I Thought: Great end to a brilliant series. Timely too considering the COVID environment. Highly recommend reading these.

Book: Wilder Country

Summary: Finn, Kas and Willow have survived the winter of storms. Severe winds and cold have kept the Wilders at bay. Now that spring has come, everything has changed. They're being hunted again, and they won't be safe while Ramage wants their blood.  But Finn and Kas made a promise to Rose - to find her baby and bring her back. And finding Hope means finding Ramage.


What I Thought: Great read - bring on book 3.

Book: The Road to Winter

Summary: Since a deadly virus and the violence that followed killed his parents and wiped out most of his community, Finn has lived alone on the rugged coast with only his loyal dog Rowdy for company.

He has stayed alive for two winters - hunting and fishing and trading food, and keeping out of sight of the Wilders, an armed and dangerous gang that controls the north, led by a ruthless man named Ramage. But Finn's isolation is shattered when a girl runs onto the beach. Rose is a Siley - an asylum seeker - and she has escaped from Ramage, who had enslaved her and her younger sister, Kas.

Rose is desperate, sick, and needs Finn's help. Kas is still missing somewhere out in the bush. And Ramage wants the girls back - at any cost.


What I Thought: Great read - along the same vein of John Marsden's Tomorrow series. Looking forward to book 2.
