“The Wizard of Oz meets Star Wars . . . Why don’t we have more YA space operas like this? Cat Lyons gives us characters who leap off the page.” —Hugh Howey, New York Times–bestselling author

 When sixteen-year-old Annie McCoy’s autistic little brother, Nate, runs out into the street right into the path of a school bus, time freezes. The possibilities spin out before Annie, as if she can control the future. Making her choice, she steps into the bus’s path and sacrifices herself to save Nate.

 Imagine her surprise when she wakes in a world a lot like her own, but definitely not. She’s nowhere near Scotia, PA, instead she’s in a Las Vegas where the fashion is hopelessly retro and the tech is absolutely futuristic. A boy named N-8 who looks exactly like Nate tells her he summoned her here to Unity on the orders of the Delphi quantum computer that runs this world.

 According to N-8, she’s here to save the world before Time itself collapses. All she needs to do is steal the Delphi Key and take control of the quantcomp.

 Annie refuses to believe that anyone as average as she is could be a Chosen One. Instead, she focuses on saving N-8 and the other autistic children who have been enslaved by the leader of this strange new world: Comptroller Franco Albanese who wields the Delphi Key.

 Determined to once again save her little brother—or his incarnation in this strange alternative universe—Annie must find the courage to break out of her ordinary life and embrace her new one before it’s too late.

Stolen Futures

Queen of Chaos

A teenage girl’s humanity is at stake as the series praised as “The Wizard of Oz meets Star Wars” from the New York Times–bestselling author continues (Hugh Howey).

Despite overwhelming odds, Annie has done it! She’s stolen the Delphi Key from the most powerful man in Unity, Comptroller Franco Albanese.

But she lost the young dataminer who brought her to this strange new world. N-8 has been captured by Franco and taken to his Palace at Fort Knox.

Together with her newfound allies—the cute but cocky street thief Killian, who just happens to be Franco’s estranged son, making Annie mistrust him despite the fact that she’s desperately attracted to him, mechanical genius Kymee Revv who hides her beauty behind Kuboki makeup and sarcasm, and Revv’s father, Pierre Lafitte—Annie has retreated to the isolated desert oasis known as Mirage, a community built below the Mojave solar reservation and protected from Franco and his Chief Enforcer, Blake.

As she tries to decipher the mysteries hidden in the Key and decide her next move, Annie learns that there’s a larger conspiracy surrounding Delphi—one that goes back over a decade and involves Revv’s lost mother, her father, and Franco himself.

If Annie can’t trust the people who have saved her life, who can she trust? And if she must choose between saving N-8 and the lives of the other dataminers and saving the world, how can she decide to sacrifice the boy who is so very like her own brother back home?

Sacrificing her humanity might give Annie the strength she needs to save the world—or it could destroy it.

Thief of Time

A heroic teenage girl’s adventure through time continues in the thrilling finale of the trilogy that’s “The Wizard of Oz meets Star Wars” (Hugh Howey, New York Times–bestselling author).

 Annie has embraced her Meta-self, realizing that only by accepting who she is can she save the world and prevent more destruction and unnecessary deaths. She also reluctantly accepts the help of her new friends—Killian, Revv, Blake, and N-8—despite the fact that there is a very good chance none of them will survive.

 The Meta in her could calculate the overwhelming odds against them making it to Delphi’s underground fortress alive, but the girl in Annie prefers to ignore the odds and focus on their mission to cross the Burning Waters, make it past the other Metas and Delphi’s security, and then use the Key to stop Delphi from continuing to collapse timelines.

 She knows there’s no way they’ll all make it out alive. Her plan is to make sure that if anyone must die to save the world and stop Delphi, it will be Annie.

 Annie might no longer be human, but she’s still the same girl who sacrificed herself to save her little brother. Annie clings to that, it’s the only piece of her real self left.

 If she can save her friends along with the universe, then her death won’t be for nothing . . . she hopes.

 Now, as every plan she’s made suddenly goes wrong, Annie and each of her friends must choose: themselves or the universe?

 Time is running out and there are no futures left to steal . . .
