Fifty years ago, the Earth died. The Earth is now a fertile but dangerous jungle world. Wildlife has prospered, although often in oddly altered forms. Survivors live in underground shelters waiting generations for the environment to become safe enough to emerge. Above ground, the radiation and poison has mutated the few humans that are left, but they do their best to survive for the 20 to 22 years they might live before the toxic planet or disease kills them.

Anna was never anything like those "real" runners on telly, but when she read about New Zealand’s 3,000-kilometer-long Te Araroa Trail, she began to wonder...perhaps being a "real" runner was overrated. Maybe she could just run it anyway? The Pants of Perspective is a witty, colorful, and at times painfully raw account of a journey to the edge of what a woman believes herself to be capable of. It is a coming-of-age story that will lead you on a roller-coaster ride through fear, vulnerability, courage, and failure.

Publisher's summary
Number one international best seller and number one new release
In an ancient alternate history, four distinct regions of South America have merged to form one technologically advanced nation called The Land.
Twenty-one-year-old Commander Jaway Barbour leads his young crew on military missions against the final remaining holdouts against the empire - the exploited tribes of the Wild Territory.
When a bomb explodes, damaging their ship, it sends the crew on unexpected adventures.
How will Jaway and the other youthful risk-takers navigate life and love in this dangerous, exotic world? How long can they evade the looming danger from the Wild Territory clans? And are they fighting on the right side to begin with?
A Buzz, the first volume of Jacob Lightman's epic new science-fiction series, delivers thrilling adventures in The Land that could have been.
Review
"An engaging, romantically infused SF tale of an alternative-Earth empire." (Kirkus Reviews)
"Readers looking for elaborately detailed world-building, intriguing futuristic tech, and sci-fi universes with a more upbeat tone will be quickly drawn into this creative work of speculative fiction." (SPR, 4.5 stars)
"Fans of team- and world-building will enjoy accompanying this ancient Earth SF epic's inviting cast through the rainforest." (Publishers Weekly)
"An imaginative and immersive plunge into a futuristic landscape set 6500 years in the past. The most impressive aspect of the novel is the depth of detail in everything from the visceral environment, savage wildlife, and odd culinary options to global history, societal organization, and the dynamic relationships between the main characters. This intensely creative future world is well thought out and undeniably unique, particularly when it comes to technological advancements. A Buzz is a striking vision of a futuristic alternate history." (Self-Publishing Review)
"A high-stakes sci-fi adventure set in a technologically advanced South America." (Independent Book Review)

John Marshall had read about the growth of voluntourism, and frankly, it was the only kind of extended trip he could afford. He'd heard that some peoples' lives were changed by a week of overseas service - what might half a year accomplish for his family? His wife, Traca, was all in favor of it; his kids, especially his 14-year-old daughter, were strongly opposed. Wide-Open World is the totally engaging, bluntly honest story of the Marshall family's life-changing adventure.

Story4.5 out of 5 stars 26
John Marshall had read about the growth of voluntourism, and frankly, it was the only kind of extended trip he could afford. He'd heard that some peoples' lives were changed by a week of overseas service - what might half a year accomplish for his family? His wife, Traca, was all in favor of it; his kids, especially his 14-year-old daughter, were strongly opposed. Wide-Open World is the totally engaging, bluntly honest story of the Marshall family's life-changing adventure.

She discovers that she is part of a long line of witches that descended from West Africa. They have the power to control the elements at will, breathe life into anything they wish, as well as take it away.

In 2083, Benjamin Brandt is among the millions of “slummers” who are relegated to poverty and struggle on the outskirts of society. As a minority growing up in the gritty underbelly of Cleveland’s Industrial Valley, Ben sees the way genetically designed “elites” live only from a distance: from the shadows of public spaces people like him are forbidden to use, and on TV, where he watches the enhanced athletes compete at an extraordinary level. For years, a national track championship has inspired Ben to ferociously cultivate his own talent as a runner.

After losing her high-octane job as an entertainment blogger, Noelle Hancock was lost. About to turn 29, she'd spent her career writing about celebrities' lives and had forgotten how to live her own. Unemployed and full of self-doubt, she had no idea what she wanted out of life. She feared change - in fact, she feared almost everything. Once confident and ambitious, she had become crippled by anxiety, lacking the courage required even to attend a dinner party - until inspiration struck one day in the form of a quote on a chalkboard in a coffee shop.

Hunger Games meets Avitar
I liked that as I read I was able to understand all of the new technologies that were introduced by the author. Also, the importance of preserving/saving the environment which is seen equally as important as saving the peoples.
I felt that the characters had some depth as the book continued. I was introduced to family members and past experiences.
There was the introduction of a love interest towards the end. But of course one of the partners was taken prisoner by a separate culture/tribe.
There was some history given concerning the different groups which lead me to understand the reason for the kidnapping.
This first book did a fantastic job at setting the stage with background, technology, relationships, cultures, and even favorite siblings.
The story line really begins to develop at the end. I am intrigued as to what will happen next. Who will survive.
