UPHEAVAL - a Young Adult novel by award-winning author Suzanne PerazziniWhile Nyeta is kayaking on a river in the wilderness with her schoolmates not far from the outdoor pursuits school they attend, a massive quake turns the earth inside out, cracks it wide open.Cold, shocked and terrified, the six surviving students set off on a terrifying journey to the city to see if their families have survived. Along the way, they encounter boiling rivers, erupting mountains, dead and dying animals, the unhinged, those who have already turned to the dark side and a gentle hermit deep in the ranges. They have to fight, hunt, care for their wounds and learn tolerance and self-sacrifice. Praise for Upheaval:"What a ripper! I walked every step of the way with those teenage survivors, and loved the story. It's vividly written and very thought-provoking. Yes, it's fantasy, but totally compelling. It's the invention of a clever mind....." Amazon review"I liked the interactions of these teenagers trying to adapt in a new world. Just knowing each other in passing prior to this quake, they had to adapt as a group in order to survive. Highly recommended..." Amazon Review
