The Starborn Redemption
Beyond the Gates
The Containment Zone is a 500-mile radius surrounded by mountains and closed in by gates. No one can leave, and anyone who tries will die. Within are lawless bandits, corrupt soldiers, and once-human greyskins that hunt down people to spread the virus. Some say the Containment Zone is where the greyskin virus originated. Others say the people inside are little more than lab rats being studied by the nefarious Screven government.
When twelve-year-old Skylar and her father, Liam, are caught trying to escape, they are taken to Vulture Hill, a government prison camp no one has ever left alive. Inside the prison, Skylar learns that the facility is little more than a testing site for finding people of a certain bloodline - the Starborn. These are people with special powers that manifests in various spectacular ways, and Screven wants to exploit them.
Skylar has always known there was something special about her family. For years, her father has had the ability to completely numb pain with just a thought. Lacerated skin, broken bones, they can all be ignored with enough concentration. Learning that her father is a Starborn means Skylar is probably one too, placing them both in extreme danger.
Now, father and daughter must do the impossible and break out of a prison known for killing so many. But Liam has leverage the government may be willing to buy - the cure for the greyskin virus.
Prison of Solitude
Skylar and Liam have escaped Vulture Hill, but they are not free yet. The gates to the Containment Zone are still closed and getting out will be their biggest challenge yet.
First, they must travel to their home where Liam has hidden the cure for the greyskin virus. Then they must find a way out of the Containment Zone. But they know they can't do it alone.
To reach their destination, Liam must enlist the help of bandits and is forced to trust a man who wants him dead: Carver. With Screven soldiers on their trail and the threat of betrayal at every turn, Skylar and Liam can't afford to fail. The fate of the world depends on their survival.
A Forsaken Destiny
Years have passed since Skylar left the Containment Zone, but Holbrook and his Screven soldiers are more powerful than ever. The greyskins still roam the land, and only the cure will stop it.
Anger toward Waverly has grown inside Skylar for years, but she soon learns that the only way to get to the cure is to go back to the Containment Zone and find a message left for her by her deceased father. And she can only do that with Waverly's help.
Now, Skylar must decide whether or not she can trust the woman who set her on this path. Will Waverly betray her as she seemingly did before, or will she do what she said from the beginning: help Skylar find the cure?
