Description
Set in a near-future world on the brink of ecological collapse, Green Rising perfectly blends science and magic in a passionate call to arms. A gripping and witty speculative novel with a dose of enemies-to-lovers romance, this is The Power for teens. "A whip-smart tale that asks big, bold questions of how we can save the planet." L. R. Lam, author of Dragonfall "A smart, brilliantly realized call to arms." The Observer "Frighteningly clever and richly imagined." Laura Wood, author of The Agency for Scandal In a climate catastrophe ... resistance is taking root. Gabrielle is a climate-change activist who shoots to fame when she becomes the first teenager to display a supernatural ability to grow plants from her skin. Hester is the millionaire daughter of an oil tycoon and the face of the family business. Theo comes from a long line of fishermen, but his parents are struggling to make ends meet. On the face of it, the three have very little in common. Yet when Hester and Theo join Gabrielle and legions of other teenagers around the world in developing the strange new "Greenfingers" power, it becomes clear that to use their ability for good, they'll need to learn to work together. As they navigate first love and family expectations, can the three teenagers pull off the ultimate heist and bring about a green rising? PRAISE FOR GREEN RISING "A terrifically bold and original take on climate fiction." The Bookseller "Smart and sharp and witty and fun." Stephanie Burgis, author of The Dragon with a Chocolate Heart "Creatively confronts the doomsday narrative so often associated with climate change and offers hope through the message that young people can work together to find solutions." The School Librarian "Inventive, gripping, and ultimately hopeful... [A] fantastic tale bursting with a diverse range of intrepid teenagers, coming-of-age themes." BookTrust "Effortlessly mixes magic and science with strong, likeable characters and a smart plot." Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear
