The Timer

Young Adult/Fantasy/Science Fiction - Ages range 12 and up

FROM THE EDITOR

One of the reasons why I admire Arden Banks as a debut author is because of her impressive talent writing fantasy science fiction in such a way that it keeps you on the edge of your seat.
If you enjoyed The Hunger Games, The Maze Runner, Divergent and its sequels, you will be enthralled by The Timer.
This fast paced story has killer drones, lasers, explosions, chills, and thrills, along with an immersive quality that provides true depth.

Be prepared for a fast paced thrill ride.

The day the world ended began like any other day…that is until eighteen-year-old Ethan Lakenestor is taken to a lab only to be strapped down, his memory wiped clean, and a deadly timer placed on his wrist.

He’s transported to a farm, commissioned to work, and surrounded by other teens–each wearing the same timer. No one knows what lies beyond the farm, but everyone that ran away in the past has been killed.

Compelled to defend a fierce girl named Jade, Ethan urges those he befriends to escape. They have a chance at freedom, except for one minor detail—each timer counts down the hours until they reach their nineteenth birthday and only seven chosen teens will live.

Ethan, Jada, and the others have a desperate choice to make: work hard to become one of the chosen seven or destroy the timer and escape into the vast unknown.

Every…second…counts.
