Description
Amity, the third and final instalment in The Last Seed Keeper trilogy, is the story of how it all ends. It is also the story of how it all began ...
Fighting against a devastating legacy left by previous generations, friends Ivy, Skyler and Durie must pull together like never before to save the world and create a better tomorrow. But to do this, they must also confront what happened in the past, and how their parents' actions brought the entire world to such a daunting precipice.
Moving between the past and the present, Amity shines a light on how, years ago, a thirst for power by two people set the planet on a collision course with environmental destruction, and how two small babies, born as the world around them crumbled, became destined to forge a new kind of leadership and a friendship that would withstand even the greatest of challenges. It follows the friends as they find their place in a new world, suffer setbacks and loss, and learn to champion a dying planet and its people.
Amity brings to a thrilling close this story of family and friendship, and shows how taking a different approach can change the future.
