Set several hundred years in the future, this story tells what life is like after "the Collapse". Lilly and her seacat fish the waters near what used to be London until raiders attack their village and kidnap the Prime Minister's daughter. While attempting a daring rescue, Lilly meets Zeph, the raider chief's son. As Lilly struggles to free the Prime Minister's daughter, Zeph tries to prove his worth as a raider warrior. Throughout the story, the two have to decide whether they are friends or enemies.
Mrs. Senechal says:
It was fascinating to think of life in the future where many people view computer technology as evil. I also loved how the author wove together the stories of two very different characters. The story was exciting and suspenseful! This book does contain some rough descriptions, and some students may find parts of the story too vivid. In my opinion, it is a better choice for students in sixth grade and above.
