Forest Runners
Forest Runners: A Young Adult Dystopian Novel (Free) | Stella Fitzsimons
1 post
When the light of the human species vanished, there was a girl... and a spark. A century has passed since they arrived. Human history has been erased. Children are enslaved on Alien plantations. Some have heard whispers of the existence of a rebel band of humans who roam free in the forests. Most slaves dare not speak of the rebels for fear the mutant guards will grab and make an example of them. Eighteen-year-old Freya is pulled away in the night not by the mutants, but by her old friend Finn, to join the Saviors, the mythic band of rebel teens. Her bliss fades when she discovers she is the only Savior without a special ability. She is the odd one out, slowly pushing Finn away, defying Damian, the leader of the Saviors, and antagonizing the fierce and beautiful Daphne. In her despair Freya reaches deep within to discover a dark destiny, a truth so heavy it threatens to destroy her. *Young Adult, Dystopian, Post-apocalyptic, The Plantation Series, Strong Heroine, Teen Romance, Alien Invasion, Teen Dystopian Romance, Fantasy with aliens, Aliens, galactic empire, strong heroine, oppression, battle for earth, free, free book, free read*

(2012) First in an indie YA dystopian series, set on a future Earth where humans have been enslaved by aliens. Our heroine is a member of a rebel group that liberates humans and plots to fight for freedom. It's very YA, with the self-absorbed first-person narration, the very special narrator, and the love triangle. Not really my thing, and I won't continue.

But at least it's no longer sitting unread in my Kindle archive. Yay #ReadYourEbooks !

swynn Adding a comment to say that the linked title is correct: the author originally published the book as “The Plantation,“ but has changed the title to “Forest Runners.“ Funny because it appears in my Kindle library as the second title, but when you open the ebook the cover image still says “The Plantation“ 17h
