(3) YA In a bleak world without trees, seventeen-year-old Banyan makes fake trees out of scrap metal for wealthy patrons. When he stumbles upon proof that there might be actual living trees in the world, Banyan sets out into the dangerous wasteland with a motley crew to find them. Tight narration prevents this action-packed book's complex plot from being confusing.
