Book description
Much of Earth is underwater - in the high mountains at the top of the
world Lily survives with her mother and her people . . . but she feels
trapped. Elsewhere, beneath the exclusive sky-cities that tower above
the waves, Fox has been waiting too. But when Fox and Lily meet on a
virtual plane, they realize the time has come to act. The world must be
made whole again, even if it means losing each other! The third and
final installment in the brilliantly imagined, hugely romantic and
poetically told trilogy set in a frighteningly realistic future.
After an early career as a teacher and freelance feature writer for
major Scottish newspapers, Julie Bertagna has quickly established a
reputation as an author of powerful and original fiction for young
people. EXODUS, the launch title for Young Picador and her first novel
for Macmillan, was shortlisted for the Whitbread Children's Book of
the Year Award and won the Lancashire Children's Book of the Year
Award and the Angus Award. THE OPPOSITE OF CHOCOLATE was shortlisted
for the Book Trust Teenage Prize 2004. Julie lives in Glasgow with her
husband and daughter.
