|title= The Race
|rating= 4
|genre= Science Fiction
|summary= The Race alternates between our world and that of one set in a future Earth scarred by fracking and ecological collapse. In our world, the story follows Christy, a young aspiring writer whose mother left when she was only 15 and whose life is dominated by fear of her brother, a man capable of monstrous acts. Meanwhile, in Sapphire a world similar to our own yet very different, with the entire economy funded by illegal smart dog racing, we encounter Jenna Hoolman whose young niece is kidnapped at the tender age of 4. We also learn about Alex, a man who can help Christy uncover the truth behind her past as well as Maree, an intelligent young woman who has the power to change the world forever.

|summary=Just because the Earth has been destroyed does not mean that humans are now extinct. As a bunch, humans are resourceful, so rather than sit on a dying Earth we all pack our bags and get a place on the orbiting station called New Earth. However, after a couple of hundred years the old space station is starting to feel a little cramped and appears to be falling to pieces. What is the common link to both Earth and New Earth being destroyed? Perhaps it is time someone did something about these pesky humans who ruin everything.
