The Outer Lands by Aliya Rahman Pdf

"A superb piece of storytelling. Rahman takes us deep into a future world bereft of light and hope. As her characters begin to awaken to the deadness around them, we also become awakened. Annie's struggle becomes our struggle. We too look for resolution and cling to the vision that somehow, someway, hope will prevail. This is a debut novel not to be missed!" --James Mathews, Author of Last Known Position A government lying to its people. What else is new? Well, in this dystopian world, the lies have reached a breaking point. That's because the government rulers of the new era, known simply as "The Leaders", have managed to convince all United States citizens that they are the only country in existence. The USA is perceived from within to be an island on a planet made up of almost complete ocean. The idea that other land masses on Earth exist has become simply a fable, a legend. A legend known as The Outer Lands. Of course, no one believes such a silly concept. Other countries? Ridiculous. That's definitely what Annie Bender thinks, a curious, but na�ve 17 year-old going through the motions of a corrupt school system. She doesn't have time to worry about children's stories and myths. She has a life to start living. A life of endless labor. Fun, right? That is, until she meets Colton Diaz. A mysterious, troublesome, and unbelievably irritating boy who insists on showing her his discovery; something he found hidden in an old, halfway underground library. With her interest successfully sparked, she joins forces with Colton and her strangely adventurous teacher to unravel the mystery of the Outer Lands. However, none of them know exactly how much trouble they're getting themselves into. Will they be able to handle the consequences that come with the secrets they attempt to unravel?

Lands of Lost Borders by Kate Harris Pdf

NATIONAL BESTSELLER WINNER OF THE RBC TAYLOR PRIZE WINNER OF THE EDNA STAEBLER AWARD FOR CREATIVE NON-FICTION "Every day on a bike trip is like the one before--but it is also completely different, or perhaps you are different, woken up in new ways by the mile." As a teenager, Kate Harris realized that the career she most craved--that of a generalist explorer, equal parts swashbuckler and philosopher--had gone extinct. From her small-town home in Ontario, it seemed as if Marco Polo, Magellan and their like had long ago mapped the whole earth. So she vowed to become a scientist and go to Mars. To pass the time before she could launch into outer space, Kate set off by bicycle down a short section of the fabled Silk Road with her childhood friend Mel Yule, then settled down to study at Oxford and MIT. Eventually the truth dawned on her: an explorer, in any day and age, is by definition the kind of person who refuses to live between the lines. And Harris had soared most fully out of bounds right here on Earth, travelling a bygone trading route on her bicycle. So she quit the laboratory and hit the Silk Road again with Mel, this time determined to bike it from the beginning to end. Like Rebecca Solnit and Pico Iyer before her, Kate Harris offers a travel narrative at once exuberant and meditative, wry and rapturous. Weaving adventure and deep reflection with the history of science and exploration, Lands of Lost Borders explores the nature of limits and the wildness of a world that, like the self and like the stars, can never be fully mapped.
