'I didn't stuff up the world. Other people did. Gutless politicians. Greedy corporations. Billionaires. People who didn't care enough. They needed to find a scapegoat, so they blamed old people.'
In a near-future Australia ravaged by environmental disaster, water and other resources are scarce, and society is heavily controlled. Struggling to survive, 16-year-old Raz and his twin sister Lu decide to escape from one of Melbourne's brutal shipping-container camps.
Accepting a ride from an unlikely ally-the outspoken fossil Gail, who's on the run from enforced euthanasia-they head towards the Dying Forest. But gangs roam the freeways, government spy drones patrol the skies and shadows of the past linger.
As they hurtle toward their unknown destination, Raz's dislike of Gail and suspicion about where they are headed intensifies. 'It's a secret, and that's the way it's going to stay,' warns Gail. After Gail disappears into the forest with Lola, a member of a motor bike gang, the twins are left stranded, but they find a sanctuary with Billy, a middle-aged farmer. Their peaceful lives are disrupted when they meet the dying fossil Tim and decide to help him. The twins' courage and ingenuity will be tested as they head into danger and make alliances with unlikely allies. Will these alliances be strong enough to achieve their goals and can Raz's relationship with Lu survive as their paths begin to diverge?
A gripping dystopian thriller, Into the Dying Forest by J K Bruce is a testament to the resilience of family bonds and the power of hope in a world on the brink, inviting readers to look beyond stereotypes and see the humanity in all of us.
