Pursuit of Truth (Ultimate Edition) (The Kesher Chronicles Book 1) Kindle Edition
This Ultimate Edition includes an Artemisian Language Guide, brand-new chapter titles, and original artwork!
It is 2,241 years after the human race resumed counting. America has undergone a prior century of tyranny. The country is slowly finding its way again under the leadership of President Schulberhe. While no one doubts the good he has already brought the nation, others question his motives. He is a foreigner, after all, hailing from the war-torn island of Artemisia. When Janice Smith's mother is suddenly targeted as a national threat and attacked in their home, the twelve-year-old girl escapes. While evading the agents who pursue her, Janice stumbles upon an underground society living outside the System's absolute control. They have been watching the influx of Artemisians for years and stand ready to resist the President's unfolding plans.

About the Author
Violinist/Violist, Composer, and Author Sarah Wallin Huff has been playing the violin since 1990 and composing since 1993. Sarah's music compositional style is what she calls "stream-of-consciousness" composition. She is currently a professor of music at Cal Poly Pomona, and published her first textbook, "History of Technology in Music," in 2019 with Great River Learning.
Throughout the course of her exploits, Sarah's literary writing has been a regular part of her creative life, beginning seriously in 1992. As she enjoys exploiting the abstract and the philosophical as a backdrop to everything she does, it is no surprise, then, how influential both her literary and music composition are to each other.

About the author
Violinist/Violist, Composer, and Author Sarah Wallin Huff has been playing the violin since 1990 and composing since 1993. Sarah’s music compositional style draws from such diverse sound-worlds as early and modern Classical, new age and electronica, world, and folk. Having received her MA in Music Composition at Claremont Graduate University in 2008, her compositions have been performed in numerous concerts throughout the States and abroad: including the Zipper Hall in Los Angeles and the Exeter Phoenix Auditorium in Devon, England.
Throughout the course of her exploits, Sarah's literary writing has been a regular part of her creative life. She began writing seriously in 1992 and has been a lover of various sci-fi, fantasy, mystery, and metaphysical writings, both fiction and nonfiction/historical, for as long as she can remember. As she enjoys exploiting the abstract and the philosophical as a backdrop to everything she does, it is no surprise, then, how influential both her literary and music composition are to each other.

- Reviewed in the United States on May 26, 2016In an America of the distant future, Janice Smith is a fairly ordinary thirteen year old girl with a decent life. Not too rich, not too poor, lives with her mother, with whom she is very close, and while not exceedingly popular, is comfortable socially. Her mother is a political activist who speaks out against the government’s monumental levels of control over the people. Social levels and travel restrictions mean that only the most wealthy and influential have any true free will or options for their lives. Unfortunately, this has gotten the attention of the wrong people. Janice comes home from school to find armed unknowns spiriting her mother away, and Janice must flee for her life and her freedom through a world where everything is monitored and it is unknown who can be trusted.
Janice’s journey is very exciting and without giving spoilers, all I can say is that the manner in which events progress is extremely well-orchestrated. Sarah Wallin-Huff has provided something that this book-lover finds only too rarely: a unique experience. That may not sound like the highest praise, but it is. Her world is very well-developed. The future tech is innovative and conceivable. This book is highly recommended, and I cannot wait for the next one to be released.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 12, 2016Imaginative, compelling, intelligent storyline. Quite engaging! I'm looking forward to Sarah's next book!
- Reviewed in the United States on August 4, 2017Not a style of writing I usually go in for - I'm for more prone towards David Weber's occasional pedantry - but his made a nifty change of pace from that, and an interesting variation on faith, or fate, as well. A good expansion of horizons, in terms of plot and style, and I'm glad I picked it up.
