"Zenith is a must-read for those who enjoy dystopian fiction with a touch of adventure and hope. Julie Bertagna's ability to create complex characters in a world that is both destroyed and beautiful is truly remarkable. The story follows Mara and her ship of refugees as they search for a new home in a world consumed by the effects of climate change. Along the way, they encounter a floating city and gypsea pirates, bringing both danger and opportunity. Meanwhile, on land, the battle against corrupt forces begins. This book presents an imaginative and thought-provoking depiction of a possible future that is both terrifying and hopeful."

Sixteen-year-old Mara and her ship of refugees are tracking the North Star, desperate to find a homeland in the melted ice mountains of Greenland. The vast, floating city of Pomperoy is just one of the shocks that are not in their navigation plans. Unwittingly, the refugees bring catastrophe in their wake for Tuck, a gypsea pirate-boy, and also for Ilira - a land whose inhabitants exist in a state of terror at the top of the world.

Back in the drowned ruins at the feet of the towering sky city, Fox is beginning his battle with the cruel, corrupt forces that rule the New World. But separated from Mara, his resolve begins to waver . . .
