Vanna Smythe (VannaSmythe) | 5 comments Hi Everyone,

I'm looking for a few beta readers for the first book in my YA Dystopian series, which doesn't have a title yet, but will very likely be called Found (The Progeny of Time).

This is the fourth book I've written, but it's my first attempt at Dystopian and Sci-fi (My other books: https://www.goodreads.com/series/7645...).

Here's the book description:

DESCRIPTION:

In 2100 the earth is slowly dying, plagued by draughts, floods, and blizzards that come in the middle of summer. The rich and powerful of North America have pulled back into the six remaining megacitites, erasing all trace of a central government and leaving the millions displaced by the environmental crisis to fend for themselves in the badlands. But sixteen year old Maya is certain she was born with the power to heal the earth.

The only place she can learn to use her gift is a school, which is run by the ruthless head of the city of Neo York. But the school is only a front for a facility that will extract Maya’s magic and then discard her. Only Ty, the heir to the city, can keep Maya from entering the facility. And Ty’s loyalty to his family has never wavered.

***

This draft is just under 60,000 words, so about 200 pages. Let me know if you're interested in beta reading it. I'd be happy to return the favor and be a beta reader for one of your novels. I like to read fantasy, sci-fi, YA, Dystopian, paranormal romance, but also thrillers, and mysteries.

I also need a pretty quick turn around on this of a week or 10 days at the most.

Thanks!

- Vanna
