Jessica Therrien follows up her
bestselling novel OPPRESSION with
UPRISING
Children of
the Gods Book 2.
OPPRESSION, translated and
sold around the world, was one of the best selling YA novels of 2012. UPRISING
continues the story of Elyse, William and the Descendants.
"The hardest part of waging a war is knowing who to trust."
Elyse has been in hiding for most of her life. Only now she’s hiding
with William, and she knows who she’s hiding from. The Council wants a child
Elyse and William have yet to conceive, a child who will be the next oracle,
and who will provide the final piece to a plan Christoph has been organizing
for years. Charged with leading the rebellion against Christoph and his
Council, Elyse feels well out of her depth. But she has good friends and strong
allies who are willing to fight with her to the end, regardless of how far they
have to go, and how many lives will be lost in the process. They have one goal:
to live freely and openly with the rest of humanity, out from under The
Council’s oppressive rule. The stakes could not be higher for Elyse and the
Descendants longing for freedom. They'll have to learn to fight if they want to
stand up against The Council, and to find allies in a world ruled by their
enemies. Elyse knows
their uprising will change the world. She doesn’t realize it will change her,
too.
