iNSiDE: A gripping new YA sci-fi for fans of Scythe and Happy Head


Overview

Whatever happens, don't go Outside. Naya has been navigating the disappearing doors, shifting windows, and size-changing rooms of her indoor city her whole life. She will do anything to be accepted into the city's governing body and police force, the NSDE, and anything to make her mother, the General, proud. So when her mother asks her to take on a top-secret, dangerous assignment, to spy on the Spiravits, a dangerous enemy with powers no one understands, she accepts. Naya knew the risks in leaving the safety of her indoor home, but she never thought the Spiravits would be so human, especially as she starts getting closer to two siblings, Zayn and Anice. And that Outside would be quite so . . . wonderful. What if everything she thought she knew was wrong? How can she complete her mission when she can no longer tell truths from lies?

Reviews

""iNSiDE's twisty and pacy feel kept me avidly reading as I tried to work out what was really going on Outside alongside Naya in this fresh take on how we see and connect with the spaces we inhabit and those we chose to ignore. I enjoyed the concept which sometimes felt like a blend of sci-fi and fantasy, especially with the way the abilities of the Outsiders manifested."" - Kenechi Udogu, award-winning author of Augmented ""S. A. Gales has created a wonderfully vivid world, where buildings and nature become characters in their own right. I loved every moment I spent with determined heroine, Naya, as she infiltrates dangerous enemy, the Spiravits, and discovers truths that will change everything she's ever known."" - Kathryn Clark, author of Things I Learned While I Was Dead ""Dystopian worldbuilding at its most original - sci-fi with a gentle touch of magic. Perfect for fans of true genre mash-ups."" - Melissa Welliver
