Fast-Paced YA Sci-Fantasy
Hunting the Forgotten Planet
By Katherine Briggs
On a haunted ice planet, the relic hunter becomes the hunted, a Hades and Persephone retelling.
Sephra will do anything to escape her home planet Casma, even if that means delivering humanity’s surviving artifacts to the quadrant’s overlords. But although they pay handsomely, it’ll still take a lifetime of jobs to purchase a ticket off her crime-ridden and diseased world.
Out of the black, Lord Krano—may his detestable core collapse under its own gravity—makes Sephra an impossible offer. If she can retrieve the Lost Library, he’ll fund her passage off Casma. The catch? The Lost Library is a legend, and it supposedly lies on an abandoned and haunted prison planet. But legends hold seeds of truth, and ghosts aren’t real . . . right? Desperate, Sephra takes the job and drags her sister and her sister’s boyfriend along for the ride.
Transported to an ice planet prison, Sephra joins forces with an abandoned hologram who promises to help her survive engineered monsters and find the Lost Library. However, the hologram has his own agenda and fails to mention the phantom presence hunting her.
"Hunting the Forgotten Planet is a riveting, heart tugging YA sci fi adventure. Secrets, siblings, a mob boss with a mission, and an ice planet that refuses to play fair—Katherine Briggs delivers it all. If this is any indication of the Classics Rebooted Collection, YA readers are in for a treasure."
