The first instalment in a gripping new trilogy, The Last Seed Keeper is an empowering read about corruption, environmentalism, and what we would do if nature gave us a second chance.

Ivy is a Groundling, bound to roam the surface of the Earth, eking a living from the rubble of the past. Skyler lives above the clouds in a haven of technology, wanting for nothing yet knowing there must be something more. Their paths are fixed, in a barren world that has forgotten nature… until Ivy makes a discovery that changes everything.

Suddenly, a forgotten orphan from the Piles holds the key to building a new world. But change is never popular with those in power, and as word gets out, society begins to fracture. Both girls’ lives unravel as Skyler uncovers the secrets that have been kept from her, and Ivy finds out just how important she is to the new world.

The Last Seed Keeper is a tense, heart-pounding adventure about friendship, secrecy, breaking down barriers, questioning everything, and holding onto hope in the darkest of places.

In a world that has forgotten about nature, two girls live on opposite sides of society. Skyler exists above the clouds in a haven of boundless technology, while Ivy is a Groundling, roaming the surface of the Earth and eking a living from the rubble of the past. Then Ivy makes a discovery that changes everything and brings their lives crashing together. A tense, heart-pounding and empowering read about corruption, environmentalism, and what we would do if nature gave us a second chance.

In a barren world that has forgotten about nature, Ivy ekes a living from the rubble of the past, while Skyler lives above the clouds in a haven of technology. But when Ivy makes a shocking discovery, the two girls are thrown together by the fallout. As their lives unravel and society fractures, can they uncover the key to building a new world?

Recenzijas

The Last Seed Keeper is a riveting adventure delving into themes of class and environmental stewardship. Packed with tense action and mystery, this page-turning tale is also filled with friendship and heart. Rich world-building brings to life a fantastic science-fiction universe with captivating echoes of our own. Young readers are sure to latch onto our two young heroines Ivy and Skyler, as they are urged to think about their impact on the world around us. - Soman Chainani, author of The School for Good and Evil "The stakes are high, and the worldbuilding is fully realized in this environmental dystopian tale that has plenty of characters to root for and an evil corporate villain to root against...A powerful, well-paced dystopia that examines themes of inequality, environment, and access to information." - Kirkus
