For now, survival means staying hidden - but what they dont know is that one of them holds the secret to defeating the marrow thieves. VERDICT A riveting science fiction novel that is a must-buy for any library seeking to expand their teen collections. The author has created a rich work of postapocalyptic fiction without the dense exposition often found in the genre. Like those authors, Dimaline writes elegant prose that grabs the reader and carries them into this dark and passionate world. O’Brien and The Chrysalids by John Wyndham will enjoy this character-driven work of science fiction.

The group must escape the Recruiters, who cause loved ones to disappear forever, and adapt to harsh conditions. Growing up on the run, Frenchie learns how to hunt, trap, and keep moving north to survive, but climate change has caused chaos and collapse around the world. Along with a group of Indigenous young people and their leader, Miig, they resist the constant threat of being harvested for their dream-carrying bone marrow. Gr 8 Up –In a dystopian future, a young Métis boy, Frenchie, comes of age while fleeing capture.
