Set hundreds of years in the future, in a post-climate crisis world, a boy enchanted by technology must choose between doing the right thing for his community . . . or pursuing his dream to fly. From the author of The City of Ember comes a tension-filled post-apocalyptic novel like nothing you’ve read before.

WELCOME TO THE FUTURE. There are no cars, planes, television, or smart phones. Climate change wreaked havoc on Earth hundreds of years ago and now, people live a simpler life.

Then thirteen-year-old Keith uncovers a secret. It’s a mysterious mission known only as Project F. It’s exciting, it’s big, and it’s going to change the world. It’s exactly the kind of adventure Keith has always longed to be a part of.

And what is adventure without a little danger, right? But how much danger is Keith willing to risk? For himself? For his family? For his community? For the entire world…?
