The Kampii’s breathing necklaces are failing, but the elders are unwilling to venture above water to seek answers. But after centuries spent hidden from the Above World, her colony’s survival is in doubt. Thirteen-year-old Aluna has lived her entire life under the ocean with the Coral Kampii in the City of Shifting Tides. I wish the cover showed more of those elements, because they’re pretty sweet.
It’s set in a post-apocalyptic Earth with advanced tech and bioengineering and settlements of humans who have been modified for their environments and robot pets and more. The cover also conveys that this is a middle grade novel. It’s vivid and colorful and clear, and captures the mermaid Kampii nature of the protagonist. Having now read and enjoyed it, I’ve come to the inescapable conclusion that this book has the wrong cover art.
I’d been wanting to read Jenn Reese‘s novel Above World for a while now.
