Description
An action-packed dystopian drama following a group of neurodivergent teenagers on their quest to free the British people from an army of cloned soldiers.
It’s the last days of the war. The fate of humanity is at stake. The stage is set for the Underdogs’ final battle.
After thirteen months of vicious warfare, the fight between the Underdogs and Nicholas Grant’s forces is almost at an end. The neurodiverse heroes of Spitfire’s Rise have fought a war to be proud of, however their greatest challenge still lies ahead.
In this epic conclusion to the series, the world is on the brink of annihilation and the survival of humankind hangs in the balance. Grant is finally in a position where he could be defeated – but, once again, the Underdogs do not have numbers on their side. They must overcome the odds that have been stacked against them since day one and infiltrate New London to prevent global destruction.
Underdogs: Uprising sees the Great British Rebellion come to a head in a cataclysmic showdown. Nobody knows what the country and the wider world will look like once the dust settles around the survivors; the only certainty is that the final night of the war will determine the destiny of the human population.

Reviews
"Admirably unusual, and serves real purpose. Bonnello writes with furious energy, and is writing the books that teenagers might relate to." — Guardian
"A fantastic twist on dystopia, with edge-of-your-seat thrills and unlikely heroes... I loved it." — Michael Grant, author of the Gone series
"A singular achievement – a taut, thrilling, fully-rendered vision of dystopia. Bonnello's pacing and action will keep you on the edge of your seat." — Steve Silberman, author of Neurotribes
"A filmic, page-turning, edge-of-the-seat dystopian masterpiece. Bonnello’s insights into his neurodivergent cast are especially acute." — Patience Agbabi, author of the Leap Cycle series, Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature
