“Utterly original, romantic, and spellbindingly imaginative.”

“Laramie Wyoming is in big trouble—as usual—but this is the biggest, baddest trouble he’s ever gotten himself into. Eleven-year-old Laramie is a lot of things: an average student, a little mischievous, always messy, constantly curious, and on most days, a good big brother. … But when his mother, a travel writer, gets the chance to take her family with her on a trip around the country to write a book, they jump into their motor home and head for the great unknown. The adventure hasn’t stopped since! Even though he’s used to getting in (and out) of scrapes, Laramie never—not in a million years—dreamed he and Maestro would end up being chased from Virginia to Alaska and lots of places in-between by bank robbers. It’s official: Laramie’s on the lam.”

“In this distinctively imagined dystopian fantasy, Rachel and Logan must throw their lots together in order to fight for justice against a cruel city-state dictator known as the Commander. At 15, Rachel possesses qualities normally forbidden to girls, such as fighting skills, self-confidence, and a nurtured belief in her own independence. …In alternating voices, Redwine unfolds the adventures, threats, deep disappointments, and hard-won gains the two teens experience. Logan is a tech whiz who places logic and planning above quick response, while Rachel’s passionate disposition has her reaching further than she can readily grasp. … Fans of Ursula K. Le Guin will be excited to meet this new but skilled fantasist.”
