Truthmaker by Tony Chapelle is the new sequel to Maurice Gee’s The Severed Land. It is based on the characters of Maurice Gee’s story and picks up where it left off. The two main characters, Fliss and Minnie, are safe on one side of the wall which separates them from the abusive, wealthy and powerful Families, primarily the Morisettes. Both Fliss and Minnie are ex-slaves from the Families, put to work under horrible conditions because of their skin colour. But they have escaped that and are happily living on the other side of the wall.  Read more
