The Arcaydian

Action packed and intense without profanity or sex.

Seventeen-year-old Phoenix must evade the A.I. guards patrolling the underground city and escape to the world's last outpost of freedom-Arcaydia.

As he surveys the surface world for the first time, he can't believe his eyes. It's not at all what he's been led to believe. The Authoritarian leaders back in the underground city he calls home have been lying about everything. Phoenix's stunning discovery could unravel the government's oppressive control, plunging the city into chaos.

This young adult adventure is set in a dystopian future where no one lives past forty, Phoenix is the last surviving member of his family. He resigns himself to working in the mines until he makes a startling discovery: The island of Arcaydia is real.

When Phoenix learns his brother is still alive, he embarks on a dangerous plan as a fugitive to rescue Walker and reach the safe harbor of Arcaydia. Accompanied by his girlfriend and best friend, Phoenix must reach Arcaydia or suffer the same fate as his parents-a death sentence.

What he doesn't know is that a shocking twist will change everything.
