    About this ebook

    “There’s a brilliant madness to this deadly post-apocalyptic world, filled with complex characters, shifting loyalties, and layers of mystery... a nonstop adventure” —Publishers Weekly, starred review of Rootless

    GenTech Corporation scours the wastelands, desperate to reclaim the last living trees from the young thieves who stole them. But Banyan no longer has the trees he and his friends smuggled south. Hunted and betrayed, he must trust in strangers as he tries to find his old friend Crow and gather feuding tribes together in preparation for war. As the battle for the trees begins, Banyan is reunited with the girl who always gave him hope, but he finds Alpha has changed in ways he’d never imagined. And when they embark upon a final journey to Vega with the goal of taking down GenTech forever, Banyan must choose between fighting for a conflicted world or saving the lives of the people he loves.

    This action-packed final chapter of the Rootless trilogy races toward a conclusion as emotional as it is epic—shocking, original, and darkly beautiful, brought to vivid life by Howard’s stunning prose and “gift for the phantasmagoric” (Kirkus).
