Summary of Rumer & Qix: The Race to Terra Incognita
Rumer, a petite apprentice reporter for the 31st century Global Quotidien with a flair for fashion, loves zipping across Nanjing with her loyal sidekick, Qix, in search of stories. But now, she?s furious with her boss for asking her to cover the exploits of Alfa, the planet?s wealthiest mega-conglomerate. Her parents died in an Alfa accident and she can?t understand how he can be so insensitive. She escapes into the indie networks and soon finds herself puzzling over an image of a bizarre nature sighting. Ever since the flora and fauna were replaced with Alfa?s Syncov? replicas eons earlier, sightings like this have been routinely dismissed. When ethereal voices relay a message confirming Rumer?s hunch that things are terribly amiss, she slips away on a globe-trotting quest for answers. An epic battle is brewing between Dr. BigCo, the powerful Alfa CEO, and his nemesis, MoNa, the vulnerable matriarch of the cosmos. Will Rumer be able to turn things around before it?s too late?Fantasy Books
