x"Colorland
He said slowly, "You know how sometimes something happens, and afterwards you think what you could have - should have - done, if only you had the nerve and the confidence to do it, but of course by the time you think that, it's too late." Isolde nodded.
Wenden mumbled, "Only, like, all the time."
"Well - it's like having the nerve and the confidence to do it straight off, at the moment you need to do it," said Ridge.
Life changes quickly from carefree, innocent fun to desperate survival when teen friends Ridge, Isolde and Wenden inadvertently transgress their city state's strict rules of conduct and morality. They are sent to a remote institution for 'retraining', from which they escape, only to find themselves wandering an empty wilderness as they are hunted by the ruthless guards of the state. In order to survive, they draw on abilities they didn't know they possessed. They call it Going to Colorland. They're happy to go there. But afraid of not coming back."
