About this ebook
In this thrilling sequel to The Well’s End, Mia and her friends embark on another can’t-miss adventure set in a richly imagined world just below our feet.
“The pace is nearly as breathless as its predecessor’s . . . a wild adventure.”—Booklist
“Philip Pullman fans, take notice.”—Matthew Quick, New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook
“Action-packed and riveting.”—School Library Connection
With Blake Sutton’s army still hot on their trail at the heart-racing finale to The Well’s End, Mia, Jo, and Rob make the crazy split-second decision to dive headfirst into the newly gurgling well, escaping Sutton’s guns with only seconds to spare. When they surface at the well’s end, they discover an astounding underground civilization of people, the Keepers of the Well. Mia and her gang hardly have a chance to appreciate the wonder of this new world before being taken hostage. Their arrival couldn’t have been more ill-timed. The Keepers, on the brink of war after the murder of a beloved leader, are dangerously suspicious of Mia, Jo and Rob, and even blame them for their loss—death in a place where death almost never occurs. The water the Keepers protect also sustains them until Mia and her friends arrive inside their glowing gates.
As Sutton’s virus threatens to devastate the entire world aboveground, Mia and her friends quickly become pawns in the Keepers’ escalating civil war. When Mia finds out her father’s also been drawn into this fierce conflict, the stakes are suddenly higher. Desperate to rescue her father and make it back home alive, Mia will have to make the perilous journey to the water’s Source to uncover the secrets hidden there.
