THEY SAVED EARTH. NOW SAM MUST RETURN TO THE WORLD HE LEFT BEHIND. Arora hangs in Earth's sky, a beautiful, distant reminder of the world Sam once called home. Five months ago, Sam escaped the planet with Linda and the others, but two of their friends, Ray and Gina, were left behind. They promised to make their way to Kyle's hidden settlement and wait for rescue. Now, Sam finally has a way to bring them home.
But when he returns to Arora, he discovers a world he barely recognises. The factions have turned against one another. Villages have become battlefields. Ordinary people are being forced to fight a war they never wanted. And behind it all stand the Elders-the rulers who have controlled Arora for generations. Sam knows what happens if the war continues. More people will die. Yet defeating the Elders may be even more dangerous than fighting them.
Their people still believe in them, and simply removing the rulers could plunge Arora into something far worse. To save his friends, Sam must find a way to stop a war without starting another. Along the way, he will uncover more about the world he was born on, confront the people who once claimed authority over him, and discover that changing Arora may require something more powerful than weapons.
It may require giving its people a choice. Arora: A New Dawn is the fifth book in The Arora Saga, a character-driven science-fiction adventure about friendship, family, loyalty, freedom and finding out where you truly belong.
