We all have gifts and talents. Some are obvious, but some are hidden and take a while to show themselves. In Recruited, each of three siblings cautiously start to perceive that they may have a special talent. They are propelled on a journey, which requires that they develop their gifts to supernatural levels. Vicious and angry animals, Yetis, Pirates and a storm at sea all threaten their very lives. Only with the powers of Light, Speed and Strength will they be able to survive the battles that lie ahead.
In the process, they uncover a life-changing truth about the animal kingdom. They learn that for centuries there has been an unseen war going on all over the earth: the war between the Clean and Unclean animals. On occasions, this war has drawn humans into battle, sometimes unknowingly. There are even acts of violence and complicated strategies of defense going on right beneath their own noses, in their own subdivision. Everything that these children have known about their surroundings will be turned on its head.
Every few generations, the Clean animals are able to recruit a human to help them in their quest to avoid Annihilation. Can one of these children, equipped with their own amazing gift, join this ancient battle? If they become part of the struggle, will they survive in this strange new existence? One thing is for sure: after this adventure, the world around them will never seem boring again.
