"The explosive finale to a new series for the next generation from global bestseller Wilbur Smith - starring teen protagonists Ralph and Robyn Ballantyne.
In the remote South African bush, the Ballantynes have captured the villainous Josef Gerhard and made him their prisoner. After his monstrous predasaurs unleashed a deadly virus on the world, and he framed the Ballantynes for it, he deserves to pay.
But Robyn and Ralph are also racing to get the newly-created vaccine for the disease out before it's too late, and stop Gerhard's partner in crime, President Mbato, from snatching power once again.
It's time to leave the wilderness and head to the city for the final showdown. But predators stalk the streets there too, and this time they've got a killer sting . . .
Get ready for more predasaurs, more adventure and more action in the epic conclusion to PREY ZONE!"

His beastly man-made predasaurs have unleashed a deadly virus and only the Ballantynes have the evidence to prove it. They need to regroup and plan their next move if they want to stop him before it's too late and find a cure for the virus.
But deep in the forest, dangers lurk; poachers are circling, and Gerhard has a brand-new creation he wants to show off, if he can lure the Ballantynes to its lair...
Can they outrun him in time to expose his monstrous crimes? And more importantly will they make it out of the serpent's lair alive?
Get ready for more predasaurs, more betrayals and more action in the thrilling sequel to PREY ZONE!"
"A thrilling new Wilbur Smith series for the next generation with high action and high stakes - starring teen protagonists Ralph and Robyn Ballantyne.
Ralph and Robyn live at Crocodile Lodge, their family ranch in South Africa, where they help with the animals, aid the conservation effort and learn the land. That is, until a mysterious predator starts terrorising the reserve.
On the trail for answers, the siblings discover the fearsome culprit: the largest crocodile they've ever seen, uncannily similar to the long-extinct Sarchosuchus Ralph recognises from his favourite game, Predasaur. And when a nearby village is ravaged by a deadly disease, seemingly stemming from a millennia-old animal, the stakes are higher than ever.
As Ralph and Robyn follow the clues, all roads lead them to Crocodile Lodge's infamous neighbour: billionaire tech giant and hunting enthusiast Josef Gerhard. Could it really be that Gerhard is bringing the beastly creatures of Predasaur to life - and at what cost?"
