Instead, a stagnant humanity is enslaved by the evil Thargons; invaders from another planet, intent on draining the Earth of its natural resources, accelerating a path to destruction that mankind had already set in motion as it polluted its home.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut when international pop sensation, Gabriel, gathers a group of middle-aged strangers from across the world, a shocking secret is revealed, and there emerges a chance to save humanity and its home.\u201d<\/p> <p>The Tomorrow People: Changes, due for release later in 2023, comes from Chinbeard Books and Oak Tree Books, and is set to be followed by a series of sequel novels.<\/p>\n<p>Commissioning editor of Chinbeard Books, Barnaby Eaton-Jones, says: \u201cAfter the success of the continuing adventures of Robin of Sherwood in book form, and with the comic strips from Look-In winning the Best UK Comic Collection earlier this year, it seemed ripe to follow this up with another classic series.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Read
