Read Akropolis Storyline:

Akropolis is a YA Science Fiction novel set in the near future and the ancient past. The book considers an alternative ‘us’ and asks the question, what if we’re not who we think we are, what if ‘we’ are ‘them’?A drowning at sea and a cellphone receiving cryptic messages from the future propel seventeen-year-old Nathaniel into a search through time for his older brother Seb, missing from their remote fishing village after attempts on his life. Guided by a series of diagrams to the site of a strange Garden destroyed in an earthquake, Nat discovers he himself has become the hunted, and Seb is someone marked with a code.From the wild seas of Tasmania to ancient Greece through to New York City in 1911, Nat and his fellow-traveller Norika flee their pursuers into a Network where no one, including Seb, is quite as they seem. When they finally discover their connection to the long-ago Survivors and their Descendants, Nat faces a revelation about his brother that affects not only his future, but his past.Akropolis offers cross-genre appeal to readers of thought-provoking YA and Science Fiction, with its shifting parallel stories of two brothers trapped in time and history, and the decisions they make to survive.
