The Unknowns Abby Summers

Taken from the only life they've ever known, to be placed where nothing should exist, Alex and five other teenagers struggle to understand this odd change in their lives after they awaken in a forest and travel together to Ataxia. Things seem to be real, but those things are unheard of by the six who seem to have been chosen for a reason. After Alex is taken to be trained as an Ataxian Traitor and is betrayed by those around her, she still hasn't found the reason why she is so important in the foreshadow of Ataxia and Malum's war. No one is trustworthy. No longer can she risk anything more. Alex places her trust in no one's hands and she takes it upon herself to decide right from wrong in this place. When the reason why she and the others were brought to Ataxia is revealed to her, Alex realizes the danger in being who she is, and it is far greater than she had imagined. The months of training and readying for war couldn't have prepared Alex for the things she knows, now. Why she was sent here, why she's needed, and why the Unknowns are such a danger to others, all begins to seem like a game they have all been trying to play for their whole time spent in Ataxia when they discover that the war they've attempted to prevent has already begun.
