Sunborn Rising: Beneath the Fall is the best vivid fantasy YA book of the year." --Entrada Publishing
On a distant world of forests floating on an ocean around a star,
a blight threatens to plunge all life into darkness.
But three friends seek the light.
Together, they will Fall and be lost.
And at the very Root of darkness, they will find themselves.
But will it be enough to help them find their way home?
The world of Cerulean
Light and water flow from the ocean into the roots of the Great Trees, up through the boughs, and out over the lush canopy. But the once vibrant treescape has grown dim over generations of arboreal life, and the creatures of the forest have forgotten the light.
Barra, a young, willful Listlespur, finds her late father's hidden journal, and reads about the old world and the mysterious plague her father believed destroyed it. He wrote that he warned the Elders. He urged them to take action. Those were his last words.
Together with her two best friends, Barra will explore every bark, wood, and leaf of the Great Forest to relight her world and complete her father's story, even if she has to travel beneath the Fall.
My Review:
Sunborn Rising Beneath the Fall is a fantasy novel about a world called Cerulean. This world is becoming dark due to a plague and a young girl like creature named Barra is trying to find out what her late father knew through reading his writings. This world is described as “great trees floating on an ocean surrounding a star” and is a story of friendship, love, and some creepy bad guys.
