Allana Raine King was born on June 4, 1999 and grew up in Bristol. She died on October 12, 2018 after contracting encephalitis (an inflammation of the brain).
At the time of her death, Allana was writing her first novel, a futuristic story set in a tribal homeland that follows Rocky as he struggles to break free of the oppression of traditional expectations.
After Allana’s death, her grandmother Lorraine Martin completed the novel, writing in the style of Allana – two writers connected by one extraordinary story. The result is Land Of The Free, a remarkable collaboration that takes readers on a journey of friendship, mindfulness and coming of age in a fantasy land of oppression and wonder.
‘Rocky's search for meaning in a hostile and restrictive imagined world is instantly recognisable. The hope of the human spirit burns strong on the page, rendered in vivid and inventive prose by two writers bound together by the most difficult of circumstances. Rocky is their shared vision; a hero we all need right now.’
Luke Palmer, poet and author
