(2) YA Earth of 2368 has been ravaged by environmental disaster and by the government's genocide of scientists and other educated people. In an authentic voice, sixteen-year-old orphan Blay relates the truth behind the lies she has been taught. McNaughton reveals a detailed, richly imagined dystopian future, mixing several disciplines of science and an appreciation of poetry in a believable character-driven novel.
