The Journey

The Underground Book Readers

The world was not ready for what happened. And in the mountains and valleys of Virginia, a group of young friends wondered what to do in this different world. Their parents and older siblings were taken away, or “disappeared,” and have not been seen since that fateful day. Schools were destroyed, churches burned, and books banned. There was no fuel or electricity available for anyone. Cars and other vehicles no longer worked and were found abandoned beside the roads rusting and in disrepair. Only the World Force military had fuel and vehicles.

The expansion of the World Force means the Underground Book Readers must go on the move. With the assistance of new friends, the group travels across the mountains of what was called Virginia in the world before. They make their way toward the free land, but increasing soldiers and military equipment threaten the group's journey at every turn. Follow the adventures of the Underground Book Readers in book five, The Journey, as they go on their way to freedom.
