Kenneth Oppel reads from his new YA novel, Best of All Worlds, a thrilling speculative novel about clashing politics, first love and human survival set within the imprisonment of a dome against an invisible enemy.

In Best of All Worlds, what should be a relaxing weekend away from the city becomes the stuff of nightmares when Xavier and his family wake up to discover themselves trapped inside a dome with no escape, no sign of captors, and just one other family whose political and moral compasses are very different... an explosive story of survival, teenage passions and an invisible enemy.
