Promo for Born To Run (Last Pick #2) by Jason Walz

 

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

Paperback, 240 pages

Expected publication: October 8th 2019 by First Second

Guest Post With Author Jason Walz (Last Pick)

 

I was so happy to get an e-mail from Jason last week about doing a guest post on my blog.  My husband and I just picked up his graphic novel and met him at the YA Lit Conference in Naperville, IL.

 

 

 

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.
