The year was Something Something. Humans had spread like peanut butter across the galaxy, looking for new planets to call Somewhere.

Only one robot remains loyal – K1-NG, aka King of the Robots. But even with the most powerful robot on their side, the outlawed humans don't stand a chance.

Ten years on, Gnat and her sister Paige are the only humans left and have spent their lives hidden underground. Now they must venture out in search of the one robot that stood by the humans. There's just one problem – the once mighty K1-NG has vowed never to help another human for as long as he lives…

SEARIA - The Rise of a Young...

Joe Ilunjo

Description 
In a coastal village where the wind is both threat and promise, a young woman named Searia dares to imagine a different future. From repairing broken turbines with her father’s tools to leading a grassroots alliance that challenges ministries, corporations, and storms alike, her journey is one of resilience, ingenuity, and vision. 
This is not a tale of heroes descending from above—it is the story of a community rising from within. Apprentices learn to keep the light steady, families weave survival into ritual, and neighbors turn scarcity into strength. Through storms, lawsuits, audits, and the slow work of replication, Searia grows from a determined daughter into a leader whose vision reshapes not only her village but an entire region. 
Blending climate fiction, social drama, and visionary storytelling, Searia: The Rise of a Young Visionary is a novel about the power of ordinary people to design extraordinary futures. It is a book for readers who believe that resilience is not just about surviving the storm, but about teaching others how to keep the light burning long after you’ve gone.
