The thrilling conclusion to the Skylark Trilogy: Lark returns to the city to overthrow the Institute. But another leader also emerges: Eve, a mysterious Renewable. Will she bring them strength-or bring humanity's final downfall?
Ever since she escaped the city within the Wall, Lark Ainsley's wanted one thing: to find her brother Basil. She's always believed he would be the one to put an end to the constant fear and flight. And now, hidden underground in the chaotically magical city of Lethe, Lark feels closer to him than ever. But Lethe is a city cowering in fear of its founder, the mysterious Prometheus, and of his private police force. To get the truth about what happened to Basil, Lark has no choice but to face Prometheus. Facing her fears has become second nature to Lark. Facing the truth is another matter. Lark never asked to be anyone's savior. She certainly never wanted to be anyone's weapon. She might not have a choice.
Debut author Meagan Spooner splashes onto the YA literary scene with this thrilling blend of fantasy and science fiction. Lark Ainsley has waited for years to be selected for the harvest- when a child's magic is taken to supply energy for the City. It's a rite of passage, marking the end of childhood. Yet when Lark's name is finally called, she discovers she's a Renewable, with enough magic to supply the City with power for the rest of her life. Now, to escape becoming a human battery, Lark must make a run for it- out of the City, beyond the Wall, and into the unknown.
