Opis

In the skies above what was once called North America, the last of humankind survives aboard cities that stand or float above the Veil, the centuries-old cloud of poisonous gas and pollution that has covered the planet longer than anyone cares to remember. The Dominion consists of the fabulously wealthy...and the terribly poor. Nothing in between. But every three years, a contest is held that is open to anyone brave enough to compete, an airship race across thousands of miles of treacherous skies. The prize for the winner? Untold riches. For seventeen-year-old Elana Silver, it's a terrible and painful reminder. Six years ago, she lost her father in the race. Three years later, her mother. Now, with a ship of her own, Elana finds herself as a contestant, driven by reasons that even she doesn't fully understand. With her skills as a pilot, she becomes a force to be reckoned with. But in doing so, she makes herself into a huge target, and as her enemies become more numerous, she will need the help of her friends to survive. As the line between friend and foe becomes murky, Elana struggles with her own beliefs, and is all too aware that, if she is to win, she may just end up losing her humanity.
