Silver World

(3) 4-6 Silver Sequence series. The carnivorous continent-size Roar reaches Earth, bent on satiation. All the children of the world have gathered at Coldharbour for protection, many strangely altered; five-year-old Jenny, transformed into a weapon, joins her giant winged brother as humankind's best hope. Tense action sequences blossom into a joyous, fulfilling conclusion, but it is the imagery--lyrical, mysterious, haunting--that will linger.
