In this dystopian graphic novel (rendered in grayscale with effective yellow accents), Strata becomes fiercely devoted to a robot horse she excavates on a salvage expedition. Her discovery sets off a chain of events that ultimately threatens not only Strata and horse Kleidi but Strata's family--and humanity's very existence. An engaging, racially diverse cast and a brave heroine give this high-stakes epic adventure wide appeal.
