| Publisher Description: A Journey You Will Not Soon Forget With the moral fabric of America deteriorating at a rapid rate, the final straw was the passing of an amendment that limits religious freedom. In this dystopian novel, two American families flee the country looking for a better life. Along the way, they meet other believers who, too, have been marginalized by the system. As if being on the run wasn't enough- narrow escapes, adverse weather, and the new required bio-chip make this pilgrimage to a new world next to impossible. Can this ragtag group of believers, in the end, learn to tolerate each other and appreciate one another and make it to the new world far from their native shores? This story is in the apocalyptic spirit of Tim LaHaye and Jerry Jenkin's "Left Behind" series with the edginess of William P. Young's "The Shack." This is an adventure that you will not soon forget What Others Are Saying "Ripped from tomorrow's headlines, Zann Renn has created a chilling masterpiece, a deft warning about America's future, and compelling beyond description. I could not put this one down. If I may, however, allow me to add a warning to my praise: Read Away From right now...while you can still get it. I fear this book is destined to move from 'Fiction' bestseller lists in America to 'Non-Fiction World History' categories available only in other countries. If Renn is correct, her own book is fated to be burned by the government of the country in which it was published." --Andy Andrews, New York Times bestselling author of How Do You Kill 11 Million People?, The Traveler's Gift & The Noticer "It is no small feat to weave a compelling and intriguing story that nonetheless offers redemption and hope, but Zann Renn delivers just such a treat in the riveting book, Away From. Set in an America rife with compromise and lethargy, with more surprising twists and turns than a Kansas tornado, Away From succeeds in evoking faith that overcomes fear and provides a soothing balm for the troubled soul." --Ken Abraham, New York Times bestselling author "Sometimes, everything in our lives appears normal... until we start to question the very reason for living the way we do. With each passing day, with every obstructive regulation, the participants in this story sought to escape from their homeland, an increasingly intolerant society, and losing all the freedoms guaranteed by their Founding Fathers. This is a book that challenges us and serves as a serious reminder of the precious freedoms we've taken for granted. A great story and a great read with deep messages for everyone " --Malika Bowling, author and blogger |
