The Searcher (The Drowned Atlas, Band 1) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

A hopeful post-apocalyptic novel of drowned Britain, for readers of Becky Chambers and Station Eleven. Fifty years after the sea took the cities, scout Wren sails out alone with a boat built for one purpose: to find Rhea, the engineer she loved and lost to the drowned world: the woman who, she has finally learned, has spent seven years searching for her. But in a flooded world, news decays and a lone sail is told nothing. The trail leads to the Lagan, a community behind a failing tidal wall: harvest poisoned, last engineer dead, boats quietly packing to scatter. The woman Wren seeks was here, two years ago, mending what could not be mended, and asking after a scout with a gull feather in her hat. Now the trail is warm. The sailing window is closing. And Wren must choose between the chase and the strangers who hold the only way back to it. Hopepunk / solarpunk: no villains; the antagonist is the sea, the silt, and the season Slow-burn sapphic love story told across a drowned ocean Found family, community craft, and engineering-as-hope Book One of THE DROWNED ATLAS: five-book series in the Tides of Tomorrow universe Completely standalone-friendly: no prior reading required The waters rose. The world shrank to harbours. Love kept sailing.
