A thrilling new limited-edition hardcover concerning class and climate change from Arthur C. Clarke award-winning author Adrian Tchaikovsky.

Firewalkers are brave. Firewalkers are resourceful. Firewalkers are expendable.

The Earth is burning. Nothing can survive at the Anchor; not without water and power. But the ultra-rich, waiting for their ride off the dying Earth? They can buy water. And as for power?

Well, someone has to repair the solar panels, down in the deserts below.

Kids like Mao, and Lupé, and Hotep; kids with brains and guts but no hope.

The Firewalkers.

"Tchaikovsky sharply addresses the connection between class and climate, weaving pressing ethical questions into a thrilling adventure." - Publishers Weekly, starred review

'... a joy from start to finish. Entertaining, smart, surprising and unexpectedly human.' &; Patrick Ness

&;The world building is stellar. The writing is exciting, and the slightly-horrific atmosphere is on point.&; &; The Fantasy Inn

Arvustused

"Tchaikovsky sharply addresses the connection between class and climate, weaving pressing ethical questions into a thrilling adventure. This is a must-read for fans of dystopian and climate change fiction." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review * Publishers Weekly * "A grim picture of a possible future, a diverse cast of interesting and distinct characters, a dollop of mystery and technological shenanigans. Theres some good action, tricksy AI, and a satisfying ending. Recommended." -- Civilian Reader * Civilian Reader * "Im always impressed with the way that Adrian Tchaikovsky can turn his hand to any style of writing, any theme, and still come up with such wonderfully detailed stories." -- Fantasy Hive * Fantasy Hive * "Every chapter throws fresh surprises at the reader, continually opening out the scope of the novel, and the imagery is wonderfully vivid throughout... Tchaikovsky focuses the taut story in such a way that every detail is relevant, building towards a climax that doesnt feel possible at the beginning but which, by the end, feels like a perfect pay-off." -- SFX Magazine * SFX Magazine * "A masterclass in concise storytelling." -- ScFiNow * SciFiNow *
