Book 1 of the Tomorrow. While Ellie and her friends are away in the bush, the world changes. Suddenly they are in the toughest situations humans can confront, facing life and death decisions. They are thrown into a world where they find courage, initiative, spirit and wisdom ... or they die. The first of an enormously popular series that has been translated and published all over the world. "The reader is unwittingly flung headlong and gasping into the plot ... the images created are so vivid that they stay with you long after the book is reluctantly closed on the final page." - Melbourne Herald-Sun.
