The Once, Then, Now Series
by Morris Gleitzman
Once
Felix escapes from a Catholic orphanage, clutching hope and stories, convinced his Jewish parents are out there. But he doesn’t know about the Nazis. Not yet. And the truth waiting in the burning world outside will shatter everything.
Then
Felix and Zelda are running—alone, hunted, unarmed—in a land torn apart by war. Nazis close in. Villagers betray them. Every heartbeat could be their last. How far will one boy go to save the only friend he has left?
Now
Felix, now a surgeon in Australia, has buried his past—until a raging bushfire and a reckless boy drag it back to the surface. As the flames rise, so does the haunting truth he’s spent a lifetime trying to forget.
After
Felix vanishes into the forest, where shadows move, allies are rare, and danger is constant. He’s just a kid—but in this war, kindness is deadly, and doing the right thing could be fatal.
Maybe
Peace is a lie. The Nazis are gone, but their poison lingers. When Felix rescues a terrified child from the wreckage, he must risk everything to protect her—from soldiers, from revenge, and from what’s inside himself.
Soon
The war is over, the Nazis defeated. But in the ashes of a broken city, cruelty still thrives. As Felix searches for hope, he discovers the fight for humanity is far from finished.
Always
