Campbell
by C. S. Starr
It’s been ten years since a virus wiped out the entire adult population. Across the world, opportunistic kids worked to reestablish order through the creation of uneasy, fractured territories. A decade later, the rules are changing. Desperate to stop his western territory from coming apart at the seams, 23 year old President Connor Wilde sends his oldest confidante to Campbell, a swelling northern empire, to negotiate with its leader. Tal Bauman isn’t expecting Lucy Campbell to be so impossible. Or intriguing. Or beautiful. He’s also not expecting their negotiations to leave them both fighting for survival in a part of the world neither are familiar with. Spanning a dystopian North American landscape, Campbell is the story of two unlikely companions who find themselves reevaluating their loyalties, beliefs, and futures.
