The Awakening

Praise for The Awakening"When you pick up a copy of the first book in the Racing Fate series, be warned! David Witt's precisely paced novel will pull you into a mind-bending journey for survival with deftly drawn characters that is impossible to put down!" -Barry Cook, Screenwriter, Novelist and Director of Disney's animated feature Mulan "David Witt has cemented himself as a master of world-building and storytelling. From the first page, I was hooked. Set in a time and place so vastly different, yet eerily similar to our own, I couldn't stop reading. This first book in David Witt's latest trilogy has as tight a grip on the reader as the Order does on its citizens. You will want to buckle up as Witt takes us for a wild ride in his latest sci-fi adventure."-Lubrina Burton, author of Shitbag Soldier On the eve of his 18th birthday, Kole Taro's life is a race against death. As a rescue racer on a planet ruled by the brutal Order, Kole risks everything to save victims of Thrill-an addictive drug engineered to keep the masses subservient. But when a sudden vision of the future saves his life, Kole's world shifts from perilous to impossible. Now marked by paranormal abilities the Order will kill to control, Kole becomes a hunted fugitive, dragging his best friend, and those he loves into danger. When a family ally reveals that Kole's long-dead parents were powerful spies, and that Kole himself is the lost prince of an Alliance world, he's forced to embrace a destiny he never imagined. Pursued relentlessly, Kole and his allies must outwit and outrun ruthless hit squads intent on capturing him. Yet even as a fiery romance offers Kole a glimmer of hope for a normal future, a chilling prophecy changes everything.
