Alastair Chisholm sends a message from the future…

We’re absolutely thrilled to be sharing this video of Alastair Chisholm introducing his new book, Adam-2 – a hugely gripping science fiction thriller featuring robots, civil war, tonnes of action and incredible twists!

The robot Adam-2 has been locked in the basement of a lost building for over two hundred years – until one day he is discovered by two children, and emerges into a world ruined by a civil war between humans and advanced intelligence.

Hunted by both sides, Adam discovers that he holds the key to the war, and the power to end it – to destroy one side and save the other. But which side is right?

Surrounded by enemies who want to use him, and allies who mistrust him, Adam must decide who – and what – he really is.

WARNING: Incoming transmission from the future…

From the highly acclaimed author of Orion Lost, Adam-2 is an exciting new adventure, perfect for fans of Eoin Colfer, Anthony Horowitz, and Philip Reeve.
