New Sanctuary — Paul Russell

The second instalment in the gripping Last Seed Keeper trilogy, New Sanctuary continues the story of the indomitable Ivy and Skyler as they search for their fathers — and for hope in a new world. Despite vastly different upbringings, best friends Ivy and Skyler share an unbreakable bond. Together, they have discovered dangerous secrets, uncovered traitors and, with the help of Ivy’s friend Durie, saved their crumbling new world’s dwindling food resources. But now, both their fathers are missing. Together, Ivy and Skyler search for answers as villains become allies and true enemies make themselves known. Questions are asked and decisions need to be made, forcing Skyler to choose between her new friendships, her family and her world, so different from Ivy’s. Friendships are tested as they hunt for lost family, and the slim glimmer of hope for the new world hangs in the balance. Can a child from the Piles and a child from the Sky really be the key to saving it all? New Sanctuary is a thrilling adventure about the bonds of family and friendship, and the crucial importance of caring for our planet in a world where nature has been forgotten but courage and hope remain.
