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?

5My Niece Just Read This Book  May 21, 2009
By Daryl
I sent this book to my niece for her birthday. She read it in a day and a half and loved it. She has sent me a couple emails about the characters. I need to read it so that I can figure out what she's talking about.

5Futuristic fun  Aug 29, 2009
By BevE "BevE"
Rumer and Qix was a fun read. A imaginative look into the 31st century and what the world will be like then. Kathleen S. Wilson does a wonderful job in creating a story where Rumer a young 16 year old reporter apprentice is given a assignment of a life time. Many of the Indie newspapers are reporting sightings of nature. She is told to find out what is going on. Rumer loves her job and with her special pocket pal Qix she is ready for anything. The one most important mystery in her life though is what really happened to her parents who died when she was only 8 years old. But almost no one dies before they turn 105. What really happened? Rumer and Qix will keep your young reader completely captivated until the mystery is solved.

5Great for the young bookworm!  Apr 01, 2010
By L. Jeanne Davis
From the first mention of Syncov (tm) it's easy to find the humor in this engaging story with an environmental message. Set in the far future with all sorts of technological developments, it's written in an easy to understand style and broken into short chapters, perfect for tiny spurts of reading time found on the subway or waiting for the bus. The hard working sixteen year old main character learns to trust her own intuition and lean on her network of friends and family to achieve the nearly impossible. An enjoyable read!
