'If the Worlds don't kill them, the Authorities will.
What if instead of one world, there were many? What if you were born with a bloodline that enabled you to effortlessly travel between worlds? What if the cost of visiting those other worlds meant someone would be sent after you, to kill you? If there was nothing for you in the world you're in except misery... would you risk leaving?
Conceived as an eight-book series, each of the Wanderers of the World novels will be be released every six months beginning 2015.
