Children of Strife Release Tour: Come and meet Adrian at a bookshop near you!
Children of Strife is the highly anticipated fourth book in the multi-award winning and multi-award nominated Children of Time series which is now released.
In this epic adventure, we visit a far-future after earth fell, where ark ships had hunted for a new home. They sought lost worlds terraformed in earth’s forgotten past. We follow a ship crewed by maverick humans, spiders and a spectacularly punchy mantis shrimp captain as they rediscover one such world, and an ark.
Then human crewmate Alis wakes to discover that she, her captain and the ship’s intelligence are the only ones left on their ship. But what happened to those who left to explore the ark . . . and the world below?
Adrian is touring the UK from 26 March to 2nd April. Click the image above to find out more and get your own copy signed by the author.
