All of the trademark elements that make Hughes books so successful are here-intelligent and fast-paced plotting, subjects that resonate with todays kids, believable characters who come to rely on the power of their hearts and minds and, most important, a terrific story that grabs readers right from the first paragraph.The Other Place is set in a not-too-distant future world, one in which pre-teen Alison and her family have just been charged with crimes of subversion against the all-powerful World Government. Banished to a penal colony in the anonymous Habitat W, they join the shadowy ranks of the disappeareds. When Alisons brother Billy escapes from their prison, Alison begins to discover the other place-and a new hope for the future.A prolific author (her newest book, Storm Warning, will be published in September 2000; please see opposite), Monica Hughes has kids lined up and waiting for each new book. The Other Place doesnt disappoint.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Mia Karts","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51598761230624,"sku":"NEW0006481817","price":14.42,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0980\/7426\/3840\/files\/515EPMSB93L_950d89c0-fc47-49a9-a82d-1c4426e9dfd3.jpg?v=1779204204","url":"https:\/\/miakarts.com\/products\/other-place-mm-0006481817","provider":"Miakarts Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
