The Girl With The Train
Embark on a thrill-a-minute fantasy ride in a Magnet Punk world, where the technology revolves around manipulating the planet’s overwhelming polarity.
"They followed me because it was in their bones.
If we did nothing, we would die, or the next generation would die.
That’s why we ran the train."
They felt they had no choice. The Resistance had dispatched a team on a mission to infiltrate the highest levels of their oppressive and evil government, and it had failed.
That didn’t stop twenty-year-old Catherine and her rogue team of young and desperate freedom fighters to attempt the same mission only days later. The mission was critical—and for Catherine, it was a rescue mission.
From the start, everything falls apart, and they find themselves being pursued by the strongest forces of the very-resourced government--a race against the most powerful people in the land.
All they have going for them is their possession of a top-tier high-powered futuristic train. They have to outrun the all-powerful Akhenaten Authority, or they’ll all die.
It quickly turns into an epic race for the ages.
This ambitious novel by AJ Diaz is a fast-paced cinematic journey through an exciting world you’ve never before seen. More than that it’s about the battle between fear and hope and what a small group of people can accomplish given strong wills and desperate motivations.

Good Debut!! Very Enjoyable.
A very good and enjoyable debut effort, the story is very quickly paced, and the characters well drawn. In fact, the main character is so well drawn that I had trouble rooting for her at one point because she got so nihilistic in her outlook. However, that only made the denouement at the end of the book even better.
I took off one star because of some grammar problems that professional authors should know better than to make, and editors should know better than to let get into print.
