Description
A story of reckless ambition, unshakable friendship and the perils
of fame, set in a broken future...
Cassica and Shiara have grown up in an outback settlement far from
anywhere. Life's hard where they live, but these two girls have
a dream.
The biggest sport on the planet is The Free Race, a dangerous off-road
rally in which competitors drive souped-up racers through the
badlands. Cassica is a talented driver; Shiara her engineer and
navigator.
Their mission: to win the ultimate race, a course called the Widowmaker,
a three-day rally through the most dangerous stretch of the
badlands. Pursuing them will be the Wreckers, a colourful bunch
of psychopaths driving monstrous armoured vehicles, hell-bent on
destroying any racers they catch.
The winners are crowned champions of The Free Race.
The losers don't survive. . .
