Everfont

The world of Gritt is dead-its inhabitants just haven''t caught up yet.

For years, Ryan has saved money to leave. Sand sailors willing to cross the desert are expensive. A month more of work and she and her younger sister will kiss Gritt goodbye.

But their time is cut short. Ryan is an Imperial, and The Seeker has orders to stop her from leaving-and breathing.

If there''s one thing the people of Gritt are known for, it''s their ability to survive. Now Ryan needs this skill more than ever before. She must rely on her wits, tenacity, and a bit of luck to carry out the plan.

There''s no more time to wait. Ryan must get herself and those she cares about safely away from this hellish landscape.
