Set in an alternate America that feels dangerously close to our own, a ghost, the boy she loves, and their friends pick up the pieces of a shattered rebellion--turning from violence to art. Fierce, fast-moving, and full of heart, it’s Feed meets Severance meets Fahrenheit 451.

The first time Gigi Durant and her renegade theater group tried to take down America’s Favorite Dictator, it ended in the murder of Max Bowl—her raunchy, loudmouthed, beloved best friend. Now Gigi is dead, shot for performing Shakespeare. But if the police state that’s taken over their city—all of America, really—thought silencing her would end the rebellion, they were wrong. Because Gigi is still tethered to her story, her ghost lingering in the consciousness of Axl Fischer, her old love. And she’s not giving up.

This time, the revolution isn’t about burning down, it’s about building up. This time, the troupe is determined to subvert the dictator’s propaganda not with weapons, but with pirate broadcasts and satire sharp enough to shred the lies. This time, with Axl leading the fight, and Gigi driving the mission from beyond, the group risks everything to defend dangerous beliefs: that voices can’t be silenced, and that when art refuses to die, freedom will prevail.

Critic Reviews

Brilliant, vulnerable, and experimental, with an uncanny truth at its core.” —Trish Lundy, author of The One That Got Away with Murder

Fierce, flawless prose grabbed me from the opening page and held me to its conclusion. Lariviere writes with the fearless heart of a punk rocker. A perfect follow to Riot Act.” —T.L. Simpson, author of Michael L. Printz Honor Book Cope Field

Packed with attitude, pathos, and grim hilarity, Lariviere’s follow-up to Riot Act ratchets up the stakes while never losing sight of its essential humanity. A look into how to cope in a dystopia and how to fight fascism without resorting to violence.” —Barry Lyga, New York Times bestselling author of I Hunt Killers

­­“Riot Act brought sanity. Live from the Afterlife brings hope.” —Reading with Taco
