Of all the post-apocalyptic young adult fiction I've been reading lately, this one is the best. As the glaciers melt, continents disappear, making space such a precious commodity that people are forced underwater to find it. Pioneers with homesteads in the "frontier" must deal with the inconveniences of life in the deep as well as with outlaws who threaten their new way of life. Ty's family is no exception and he must choose between exposing a well guarded secret or protecting the homeland he holds dear. A choice that becomes harder when the line between the two blurs. This book was scouted for film rights before it was even published. An excellent last beach read of the year for those of you still living in semi-warm climates.
