The Sky-Gardener's Ghost

About this book

In an alternate 1934 London shrouded in perpetual ash from a cataclysmic eruption, society is strictly divided vertically, with the wealthy living in towering spires while the impoverished languish in the perpetual dark below. Ignasi Pema, an elderly botanist who once tended the rare luminescent flora of the uppermost tiers, now serves as a reluctant mentor to a young thief from the slums who possesses an inexplicable connection to a long-lost species of glowing moss. When the ruling elite decree that all surviving plant life must be confiscated to fuel a new, desperate energy project, Ignasi and his unlikely apprentice must navigate the treacherous politics of the spires and the perilous depths of the undercity to protect the last vestige of true light before London descends into total darkness.
