| Summary |
At the beginning of February 2060, Mount Erebus erupted, the first of a chain of Antarctic volcanoes that forever changed Earth's future. Within days, sea levels began to rise, until 60 meters of water claimed coastlines worldwide. Twelve-year-old Xin-yi and her mother fled their home, surviving among a community of rice farmers. A year later, a chance conversation with international census officials prepared her for a new life. Now 14, Xin-yi commences her training as a visionary. It is her task to imagine a new Earth, rising above the drowning waters. Thousands of young people strive to design a world in which the displaced millions can live and engineer a solution that will take a millennium to populate. But Xin-yi's challenges are more personal: coming to terms with the loss of her brother and unexpected feelings toward a friend. She has to choose between working to benefit humanity and her internal conflict with love. |
