At 14, Will Burrows prefers to spend his time doing archeological work with his father, away from his difficult family. But after his father disappears, Will?s search leads him into "The Colony," a mysterious underground world. There he uncovers a miserable underclass longing for freedom. Will the quest for his father entangle him with a society he knows next to nothing about?
| Praise| "The authors add distinctive, vivid touches to the somewhat trendy 'towns down below' premise...and the murderous, refreshingly competent Styx makes an uncommonly challenging adversary." 2/15/2008 "Although the primary focus of the novel is the heroic quest on which Will embarks, there is also enough thoughtful exploration of family dynamics to intrigue readers who may not normally be drawn to fantasy...." 3/1/2008 |
