LAST PICK GN (2025)

"An alien abduction has left behind only those younger than sixteen, older than sixty-five, or too 'disabled' to work. In other words, people who weren't a threat - until now. Twins Sam and Wyatt are ready to chuck their labels, break free from their captors, and inspire others to do the same. It's time for 'the last picked' to step into the game. Jason Walz pairs vivid world-building and a fast-paced adventure in a beautiful story of sibling devotion. With humor and action, Last Pick shares an empowering message about the dangers of labeling and writing people off. Available in softcover and hardcover editions."

"Aliens have kidnapped most of mankind, leaving behind those they deem unworthy, the 'last picked.' The future for Sam is bleak and unthinkable. A galaxy away from her twin brother, she is a pawn in the aliens' bloody civil war. But with her new friend Mia, Sam has found a way to resist her captors and hold onto her humanity. Back on earth, Sam's twin, Wyatt, is leading a resistance of his own. With a ragtag army of the old, the young, and the disabled, he has a plan that brings the fight to his alien captors. But to defeat the aliens, Wyatt may need to befriend one. Available in softcover and hardcover editions."

"Wyatt is now the reluctant leader of the 'last picked' - the disabled, the elderly, and those deemed too young to be useful for hard labor by their alien captors.

Meanwhile, Wyatt's twin sister, Sam, and her girlfriend, Mia, are creating chaos all over the galaxy in an attempt to rescue Sam's parents. After close escapes and explosive encounters, the family is reunited at last. But they'll need more than just each other to overthrow the aliens. Luckily, the last picked all over the world are rising up for an ultimate showdown against their enemy. Available in softcover and hardcover editions."
