Outpost

Ann Aguirre, geboren 1970, ist eine amerikanische Bestseller-Autorin mit einem Abschluss in Englischer Literatur. Bevor sie sich ganz der Schreiberei widmete, arbeitete sie als Clown, Buchhalterin, Synchronsprecherin und als Retterin von streunenden Kätzchen, wenn auch nicht zwangsläufig in dieser Reihenfolge. Sie schreibt vor allem Science-Fiction- und Fantasy-Romane und lebt mit ihrem Mann, Kindern, zwei Katzen und einem Hund in Mexiko.

Deuce's whole world has changed. Down below, she was considered an adult. Now, topside in a town called Salvation, she's a brat in need of training in the eyes of the townsfolk. She doesn't fit in with the other girls: Deuce only knows how to fight. To make matters worse, her Hunter partner, Fade, keeps Deuce at a distance. Her feelings for Fade haven't changed, but he seems not to want her around anymore. Confused and lonely, she starts looking for a way out. Deuce signs up to serve in the summer patrols-those who make sure the planters can work the fields without danger. It should be routine, but things have been changing on the surface, just as they did below ground. The Freaks have grown smarter. They're watching. Waiting. Planning. The monsters don't intend to let Salvation survive, and it may take a girl like Deuce to turn back the tide.Outpost is the second book in Ann Aguirre's page-turning The Razorland Trilogy.
