Karridrae is different, and in the world of the Domes, different is dangerous.

In a hostile landscape devoid of plant life; in a future where humanity clings to survival; the way to stay alive is to follow the rules.

Karridrae is an Aberration. Her very existence breaks the rules. Her telepathic abilities simmer beneath a veneer of compliance, a constant danger she must suppress. When a vision of impossible green-a living plant in this dead world-breaks through her mental barriers, her careful facade begins to crack.

Ryn is a rebel. An outsider, who sees through Karridrae’s carefully constructed walls, revealing connections she’s been trained to fear. Their meeting will become the catalyst that unravels everything Karridrae knows.

Join Karridrae on a journey through the wastelands beyond the Dome’s borders, where the fight for survival might just alter the destiny of a civilization bound by fear.

Wastelands, the first instalment in Samira Lloyd’s gripping Parched Earth Trilogy, immerses readers in a queer post-apocalyptic saga where the seeds of change are beginning to stir.
