Tomorrow, When the War Began

Book 1 of 1 in Tomorrow #1

1995

by John Marsden

When Ellie and six of her friends return home from a camping trip deep in the bush, they find things hideously wrong β€” their families gone, houses empty and abandoned, pets and stock dead. Gradually they begin to comprehend that their country has been invaded and everyone in the town has been taken prisoner. As the horrible reality of the situation becomes evident, they have to make a life-and-death decision: to run back into the bush and hide, to give themselves up to be with their families, or to stay and try to fight. This riveting, tautly-drawn novel seems at times to be only a step away from today's headlines.
