Elijah Brighton is the face of the Human Resistance Movement.

The creatures arrived on June 6th, 2026, by the hundreds of thousands, silently drifting down out of the sky, hovering at a geostationary orbit for three months all over the planet, taking up positions. No one knew what they wanted...why they came...or why they wouldn't just go away. And then, three months later, the unthinkable happened. They suddenly came to life, hunting us down. We called them gorgons—after the mythical creature Medusa—because their eyes had the power to paralyze us with just one look.

She’s not going to go “off-kilter,” like her mom says she did when she was just a little kid. Once she arrives, Hedda finally feels like she’s in control.

And he had help - two mentors, his girl, and a friend.

What are you supposed to do when the whole world joins forces against you? Give up, find some hole to duck into, and beg for your life to be spared? But even despite how obvious the answer to that question might be, many an adult had been dashed on the rocks 12-year-old Tailyn Vlashich was supposed to climb. Ahead of him lay a secret laboratory belonging to the ancients; behind was a horde headed by his sworn enemy. But through it all, Tailyn had those who loved him, those who believed in him, and that support was enough to carry him to the ends of the Earth.

Into the darkness within; or else the light.... When Margaret Atwood wrote these words, she left open the possibility that even our darkest tales may harbor a glimmer of hope.
