    About this series

    Welcome to Wananelu: Caught between the ’Gades and GlobeTran, their only choice is to fight for the freedom of Africa In a deadly race to strike before the ’gades secure the savannah and wipe out the New SUN resistance, Reya, D’Shay, Jaym, and a handful of other rebels launch a daring mission to infiltrate Wananelu, Chewena’s capital city. Desperate to free the country from GlobeTran’s corrupt control, they seek out allies and information that could help the resistance finally return power to the people of Africa. Once inside Wananelu, the blender rebels must evade robotic attack hounds, identity-scanning dragonfly drones, and Globe-Tran city cops at every turn. But avoiding capture and torture in the ‘Snakepit’—a treacherous prison where no one leaves alive—is more difficult than Reya, D’Shay, and Jaym ever imagined. Can they take down GlobeTran and secure their freedom once and for all?

      In the year 2069, turning seventeen means mandatory Global Alliance work assignments that range from backbreaking drudgery to deadly canal labor. Trying to survive in a world that's been ravaged by plagues and environmental disasters, three "s'teeners" from the harshest backgrounds think they've gotten lucky. Jaym, Reya, and D'Shay are chosen to be among thousands of blenders, whose task is to help repopulate and rebuild Africa after a devastating solar flare. But the continent itself—roiling with civil war and mercenaries intent on crushing the blending program at any cost—poses the gravest danger. Separated, the three friends struggle to escape the violence and chaos, and somehow reunite. But will following rumors of a mountain hideout lead them to sanctuary, or cost them their lives?

      Under siege in the harsh African desert. Their only choice: rise up against ruthless renegades . . . or die. After weeks of suffering from exhaustion and starvation, Jaym and D’Shay, conscripted NorthAm Blenders, have helped dozens of Nswibe refugees cross the African desert under the blazing savannah sun. They’ve finally reunited with their friend, Reya, and found safe haven at a New SUN outpost, a cavern fortress hidden in the Blue Mountains. But their troubles are just beginning. Treachery and infighting run rampant at the camp. And as a massive ’gade attack looms, the three friends are quickly drawn into a deadly battle. Overcoming the siege is vital—defeat would mean slavery, death, and the end of the Blender program, Africa’s last hope. Racing against time, Jaym, Reya, and D’Shay mount a daring counterattack against the power-hungry ’gades—knowing that if they fail, their world will be destroyed.
