Second in the Fever Crumb trilogy from the author of Mortal Engines. “Fever herself is a virtuoso character . . . Imaginative, inventive and exciting.” —Kirkus Reviews (starred review) YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults USBBY Outstanding International Book In a ruined world, Fever seeks the lost secret of flight. Two years ago, Fever Crumb escaped the war-torn city of London in a traveling theater. Now, she arrives in the extraordinary city of Mayda, where buildings ascend the cliffs on funicular rails, and a mysterious recluse is building a machine that can fly. Fever is the engineer he needs—but ruthless enemies will kill to possess their secrets. In this gripping sequel to Fever Crumb, master storyteller Philip Reeve creates a riveting story that is unforgettable and delightful at every fast-paced, breathless turn. “Remarkable storytelling.” —The Horn Book “Reeve’s intricately imagined world, combined with a fast-paced plot, offers a rich, rewarding reading experience.” —School Library Journal |
