I was able to do a promo post for Last Pick for Jason Walz last year, so I was really happy to hear from him for the second book.
Last Pick: Born to Run by Jason Walz
Four years ago, aliens kidnapped most of mankind, leaving behind those they deemed unworthy—the “last picked.”
The future for Sam is bleak and unthinkable. A galaxy away from her twin brother, she is a pawn in the aliens’ bloody civil war. But with her new friend Mia, Sam has found a way to resist her captors and hold onto her humanity.
Back on Earth, Sam’s twin, Wyatt, is leading a resistance of his own. With a ragtag army of the old, the young, and the disabled, he has a plan to bring the fight to his alien captors. But to defeat the aliens, Wyatt may need to befriend one.
“An extraordinary sequel that is thrilling, inclusive, and unforgettable.”―Kirkus Review, starred review
Book One:
Last Pick by Jason Walz
Three years ago, aliens invaded Earth and abducted everyone they deemed useful. The only ones spared were those too young, too old, or too “disabled” to be of value. Living on Earth under the aliens’ harsh authoritarian rule, humanity’s rejects do their best to survive. Their captors never considered them a threat—until now.
Twins Sam and Wyatt are ready to chuck their labels and start a revolution. It’s time for the kids last picked to step into the game.
In this first volume of Jason Walz’s dystopian graphic novel trilogy, the kids last picked are humanity’s last hope.

It does. We have the first one. Jason is really nice. We met him at the YA Lit Conference, so our first one is signed. Jesse talked to him quite a bit, so I was happy when he contacted me shortly after (not knowing I was there). I love the artwork.
