A MATTER OF DAYS
Book ID/图书代码： 06580112B58044
English Summary/英文概要： On Day 56 of the pandemic called BluStar, sixteen-year-old Nadia’s mother dies, leaving her responsible for her younger brother Rabbit.
They secretly received antivirus vaccines from their uncle, but most people weren’t as lucky. Their deceased father taught them to adapt and survive whatever comes their way.
That’s their plan as they trek from Seattle to their grandfather’s survivalist compound in West Virginia.
Using practical survival techniques, they make their way through a world of death and destruction until they encounter an injured dog; Zack, a street kid from Los Angeles; and other survivors who are seldom what they seem.
Illness, infections, fatigue, and meager supplies have become a way of life.
Still, it will be worth it once they arrive at the designated place on the map they have memorized.
But what if no one is there to meet them?
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 在名为“蓝星”的流行病毒肆虐的56天里，16岁的娜迪亚的母亲去世了，留下她照顾她的弟弟兔。
她们从叔叔那里偷偷拿到了疫苗，但是大多数人没有这么幸运了。已故的父亲告诉她们无论用什么方法，都要适应社会，生存下来。
她们的计划是从西雅图长途跋涉到西弗吉尼亚州，和她们幸存的祖父会合。
通过实用的生存技巧，她们用自己的方式在遍布死亡和毁灭的世界里穿行，直到遇到了一条受伤的狗，一个洛杉矶的街头小子，扎克，以及其他一些幸存者。
疾病、感染、疲劳和微薄的物资已经成为生活的一种方式。
尽管如此，这也是值得的，如果他们能到达早已牢记在心的目的地。
但是，如果那里没有他们要见的人，怎么办？(LNL)
Awards/获奖情况：
About the Author/作者介绍： Amber Kizer不是那些在三岁就能写完一本书的作者，也不是那些从小就知道自己会成为作家的人。当她读大一，得了一种慢性疼痛病时，她知道她必须学会在外面生存。在参加了一个作家研讨会后，她爱上了讲故事，并且这种劲头不减反增。她笔下的人物往往有主见，直言不讳而且倔强——她也不知道这些是从何而来。
她是一个美食爱好者，计划来一次食谱之旅。她喜欢制作复杂的食谱——尤其是甜品。当她从一堆书中抬起头后，喜欢哄骗玫瑰花丛绽放，愉快的看电视上焦虑的青少年，或者愉悦的缝补。她把自己的红茶，蛋奶冻以及风趣融入进小说里。她住在西雅图，那里有动物园，十分有趣。
她是一个狂热的学习者，她专注于写作技巧，她未发表的作品获得了圣地亚哥的奖项，她自己也获得了萨斯喀彻温省的浪漫作家。她的第一个年轻人系列作品，2007年10月9日在德拉柯尔特出版社首映。平装本将于2008年12月9日发布。
Amber的哥特加里波第系列的主人公被称为“诚实的、性急的、刚直不阿的”，她的书挑战了传统的禁忌话题。
她的第二个系列“从屁股到战利品”将在2008年12月9日发布。目前Amber有三部作品在讨论中，并且有望在未来几年里在书架上看到它们。
Amber Kizer is not one of those authors who wrote complete books at the age of three and always knew she wanted to be a writer. When she faced a rare chronic pain disorder her freshman year of college, she knew she was going to have to learn to live outside the box. After one writing workshop, she fell in love with telling stores and she’s still going strong. Her characters tend to be opinionated, outspoken, and stubborn—she has no idea where that comes from.
A food lover, she plans trips around menus, wishes cookbooks were scratch and sniff, and loves to make complicated recipes—especially desserts. When she’s not reading from a huge stack, she’s coaxing rose bushes to bloom, watching delightful teen angst on television, or quilting with more joy than skill. She takes her tea black, her custard frozen, and her men witty. She lives in the Seattle area with a menagerie of animals that seems ever changing.
An avid learner, she focused on the writing craft and her unpublished works won awards from PNWA, San Diego RWA, and the Saskatchewan Romance Writers. Her first young adult series sold at auction to Delacorte Press with ONE BUTT CHEEK AT A TIME premiering, in hardcover October 9, 2007. The paperback will be released December 9, 2008
The star of Amber’s series Gert Garibaldi has been called “honest, brash, and outspoken” and her books take on traditionally taboo subjects.
The second in the series FROM BUTT TO BOOTY will be out December 9, 2008. Amber currently has three other books under discussion and looks forward to seeing them on bookshelves in the coming years.
