Description
The future is within their grasp - can they rise to meet it? In this powerful conclusion to the Tomorrow's Ancestors series, the rebels of Uracil have one final choice to make.
After the devastating attack on Uracil, the safety it once offered Elise and her friends has been shattered. Desperate, alone and scared, they need to find the residents captured during the attack, and create a new place of safety before they are found once more.
But how can they ever truly feel safe when they suspect there is a traitor among them?
And when Samuel and Genevieve unexpectedly return, it throws things even further into disarray. With competing motivations and loyalties around every corner, should they focus on finding safety for themselves, or try once more to change the world for the better?
Can they rise, one final time?

PRAISE FOR THE TOMORROW'S ANCESTORS SERIES * : * A stonking good sci-fi & coming-of-age story all wrapped into one . . . a book that tackles humanity, hardship, and classism at the deepest level * Magic Radio Book Club * There's danger, action, adventure and excitement. There's heartbreak and loss alongside community and determination. There's manipulation, disappointment, and a few plot twists along the way. * Rachel Churcher, author of Battle Ground * An unputdownable exploration into the ethics of science * Buzz Magazine * The plot is fast paced and action packed and I honestly couldn't put it down . . . If you still haven't picked up this series yet, what are you doing?! * Elle Reads Books * Incredible . . . without a doubt one of the best YA sci-fi books I've ever read. * Out and About Books * Crisp and clean, with just the right mix of brusque practicality to move the plot along, interspersed with hauntingly beautiful moments of character introspection and emotion. * Julia Blake, author of Black Ice *More details
