About this audiobook

In 2050, America has fallen. Now known as the United States of the Greater World, the nation struggles under Chinese influence, constant surveillance, and an oppressive robotic workforce. When Robotics Readiness High School replaces human teachers with AI instructors, teenager Jason Fontenot and his tech-savvy friend Carson Mire decide they've had enough. What begins as a rebellious plot to expose the flaws in the robotic teaching program quickly spirals into a desperate fight for survival when a riot at a football game leads to arrests, a hurricane bears down on their coastal town, and government forces hunt them as fugitives. As Jason and Carson take shelter with an unlikely group of allies—including a spirited girl named Princess, a human police officer with a tragic past, and a weatherman with a secret mission—they discover the terrifying truth about the pandemic that changed their world and the "cure" that only works for the compliant. With robotic soldiers closing in and their loved ones in danger, the teens must decide: escape to Mexico and abandon the only home they've ever known, or stand and fight for the freedom that previous generations surrendered. In this gripping tale of resistance and hope, their choice will determine not just their own futures, but possibly the fate of a nation yearning to reclaim its identity. If you enjoyed The Hunger Games, Ready Player One, and Scythe, you'll love Written in Purple.
