While they try to understand their special abilities, experimenting with these together can only take them so far. Out of nowhere, an environmental organisation brings them together with other teens. Are these teens like Dave and Nia? Is there more to this organisation than the environment? Together Dave and Nia start their journey towards awakening, comprehension and understanding.\u003cbr\u003eTo complicate things, Nia is in love, she has been since she was five. She cringes at the cliché, but she can’t help herself. She is in love with Dave, her best friend, the boy next door and the most popular boy in school. How does he feel about her? He likes her, but is that enough? Why doesn’t he date? After a blow to her already shaky confidence, Nia decides it’s time to act. Even if this wrecks everything. Even if she isn’t worthy. It’s time.\u003cbr\u003eThis feel good story takes our teens on a new direction, out of their ordinary world. Can they help the darkness in people around them? Can they help the environment?\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col class=\"a-carousel\" role=\"list\" aria-busy=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cli aria-roledescription=\"slide\" class=\"a-carousel-card rpi-carousel-attribute-card\" aria-posinset=\"5\" aria-setsize=\"11\" aria-hidden=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-publication_date\" data-rpi-attribute-name=\"book_details-publication_date\" data-rpi-attribute-ref-tag=\"dbs_dp_rpi_r_d_book_details_publication_date\" class=\"a-section rpi-attribute-content celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"hn8h9i-fbaj9f-qdqzio-63d6rp\" data-cel-widget=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-publication_date\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-text-center rpi-attribute-label\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003ePublication date \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rpi-icon book_details-publication_date\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e27 July 2021\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-roledescription=\"slide\" class=\"a-carousel-card rpi-carousel-attribute-card\" aria-posinset=\"6\" aria-setsize=\"11\" aria-hidden=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-customer_recommended_age\" data-rpi-attribute-name=\"book_details-customer_recommended_age\" data-rpi-attribute-ref-tag=\"dbs_dp_rpi_r_d_book_details_customer_recommended_age\" class=\"a-section rpi-attribute-content celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"bdn6u2-ggt8wu-lw4du-b566j\" data-cel-widget=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-customer_recommended_age\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-text-center rpi-attribute-label\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eReading age  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rpi-icon book_details-customer_recommended_age\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e14 - 18 years\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli aria-roledescription=\"slide\" class=\"a-carousel-card rpi-carousel-attribute-card\" aria-posinset=\"7\" aria-setsize=\"11\" aria-hidden=\"false\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv id=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-grade_level\" data-rpi-attribute-name=\"book_details-grade_level\" data-rpi-attribute-ref-tag=\"dbs_dp_rpi_r_d_book_details_grade_level\" class=\"a-section rpi-attribute-content celwidget\" data-csa-c-id=\"tdgbvy-ljucz6-bztpoi-9tm5s6\" data-cel-widget=\"rpi-attribute-book_details-grade_level\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-text-center rpi-attribute-label\"\u003e\n\u003cspan\u003eGrade level  \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"rpi-icon book_details-grade_level\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003e9 - 12\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"a-section a-spacing-small a-text-center rpi-attribute-label\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct Depth:  2.5 cm\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct Height:  23 cm\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eProduct Width:  15 cm\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAge level\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cspan\u003e – mid teen to young adult.

Always examining scenes and their endings to see how he would have written them differently. He does the same with movies, always looking for a better ending. Barry started writing seriously several years ago mainly as a way to get the stories that have been running through his head for decades out on to paper. Barry has written novels in a few different genres, the YA Banduri series to start. Followed by a collection of post pandemic novellas (What Lies Within series), and a dystopian novel (Shining Star).\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBarry has been working in businesses and banking over the years where the main form of communication is dot points and graphs, where brevity is king. It has been a real culture shock to rework his skills and expand on thoughts \/ scenes to make something engaging and believable. Like most Indi authors he makes mistakes and there has been a steep learning curve, but he loves the craft and the result.\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003cu\u003e\u003c\/u\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eTransplanted Victorian now resident in QLD for over 40 years and to some extent Satori has been influenced by his time holidaying and working around the Whitsundays and regional Queensland.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Beach Book Boutique","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45497280954559,"sku":null,"price":25.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0471\/4826\/9728\/files\/Satoricover.jpg?v=1776228517","url":"https:\/\/beachbookboutique.com.au\/products\/satori-bj-pittman-queensland-author","provider":"Beach Book Boutique","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
