Description
Bad Apple by Matt Whyman is a humorous and thought-provoking novel about a society torn apart by conflict. In this world, teenagers are divided into changelings and humans, with the former sent to live in sinkhole estates like The Dregs. When 16-year-old Maurice's school bus is hijacked by riotous trolls, he finds himself kidnapped and forced to navigate this treacherous landscape. Maurice soon discovers that not all trolls are as bad as they seem, and he teams up with a teenage troll named Wretch who has a heart of gold despite his destructive tendencies. Together, they must work with social worker Candy Lau to escape The Dregs, reunite Wretch with his parents, and challenge the system. This book is a humorous and engaging exploration of social themes, values, and virtues, set against a backdrop of action-packed adventure and unexpected friendships.
