Enzo Cruz was raised to destroy the system. Maddie Westing was born to inherit it. Together, they'll have to burn it all down to save what matters.

Do you love YA dystopian sci-fi with:

• A Mars colony that promises paradise and delivers something far darker
• An evil billionaire with no limits and no conscience
• Two teens navigating impossible loyalties — to their missions, their families, and each other
• Dual POV, two planets, one collision course
• Found family forged under pressure
• Betrayal disguised as survival
• A secret beneath the Martian surface that changes what it means to be human

Then you need this series on your bookshelf — Against the Red Sky, the complete duology, now in one deluxe hardcover set.

Mission X (Book 1): On an Earth running out of water, Enzo is Terra Primera's youngest operative, sent to infiltrate a new facility training recruits for the Martian colony — and sabotage its shuttle before it ever leaves the ground. Maddie is one of thirty elite students chasing her dream of reaching Mars and her mother. When their paths collide, so does everything they thought they knew — and exposing Transcendia founder Augustus Sardeth won't come without a price.

Colony Exposed (Book 2): Enzo and his friends are sent to Mars to die building domes they'll never live in. Maddie has to break out of her uncle's facility and reach Mars before it's too late — only to find a colony built on a secret darker than either of them imagined.
