Regan knows she has very little chance of getting there, to the New World. Time has passed, and only a few more people might be lucky to continue their lives. She has come to terms that her parents will never make it, but her little brother Hughie and her best friend Demetrius are left with her too. Surely the three of them cannot make it together. Regan and Dem are pinning their hopes on the Elders to choose Hughie to be a new citizen, in order for him to stay alive in the New World. But things are not always what they seem. Everything that held relevance in Regans' past is gone. She must now face a choice: To survive in the wildly, unexpected future unfolding before her eyes; or to look for those who have no existence except in her memories. Was her previous world an illusion? If not, will she be able to uncover the mystery that has shrouded the very existence of all those whom she loved?

Sentilia

Maxine is an 18-year-old girl who is bored and lonely, living in California in the year 2351. She's always been fascinated with how humans used to live in houses, drive cars, and the fact that there used to be forests and parks everywhere. Now, after a war that nearly erased humanity, people are forced to live a strict, dull, communist lifestyle. Everyone seems okay with this way of life. Everyone except Maxine. Maxine had always been special; she was often able to predict events. How? She didn't exactly know...yet. When she starts having dreams about a tropical island where people live as they did in the 21st century, she meets the man of her dreams: literally. Her new boiling emotions bring her to wonder...what if it's a real place? When she starts her search for the island and bumps into Elis-the man in her dreams-she suddenly knows it wasn't all just a making of her imagination. Finding that island could mean finding the answers to her burning questions, and maybe even answers to questions she didn't know she had. However, not everything is what she thought it would be when she finally finds the island, and her dreams become a harsh reality. Elis turns out to be someone else, and when another man swoops in every time Maxine is in danger, she becomes confused about what love really is. The Advisors, the ten women governing the world, want to assimilate the people of the island, not knowing that those people have an extreme advantage over them. Maxine also learns that her family has been lying to her about who she really is. Ultimately, when the Advisors come to destroy the island, she must face the fact that she is the key to the island's salvation, and embracing her rapidly developing abilities is the only way to do so.
