Teenage Wastelands: Escape From Concordia is a novel by Kent J. Starrett, following the second book in the Teenage Wastelands saga and (possibly) concluding the series.War has swallowed the country. In the aftermath of the preceding novel, the Raquin Dynasty has declared full-on war on the Outland - their word for out society - with a series of meteorological attacks on five major cities on New Year's Eve of 2000. In response, America has locked its borders and declared a counterattack on conjurors wherever they found them.In the midst of all this, Craig Steiger is on the run from Raquin Syvier, Empress of this ecoterrorist group. Will and Amy, searching for him and investigating the paranormal, begin to notice a harsh uptick in the amount of phenomenon arising in and out of the rural parts of America. Soon, they begin to suspect that the Raquin Dynasty may not have started this war. And they begin to seek out who - or what - did.Noted for being a surprisingly sympathetic and bittersweet, if Bloodier and Gorier expansion on the previous two novels. Starrett hasn't confirmed if he will continue the series or not, although he originally planned it as a five-book saga.

comment
Ambiguously Human: the black-eyed children are shadow-beings inhabiting human bodies, while Indrid Cold may be some strange parody of an extinct and ancient human race. The Harlequins play this straight, being genetically modified humans that fell completely under the Proxy Horde's control.

Uncanny Valley: in spades, but most especially with the non-human proxies such as the becs, harlequins and shadow-beings.

Really 700 Years Old: The Concordia House can preserve people for decades at the same age, meaning that Palamabron has stayed twenty-one even though she was born in 1918. Her romance with Craig is substantially less squicky than it would be, as it's explained that human proxies remain the same mental and developmental age they were when they arrived in Concordia.
