The Drowned Cities is a gripping tale of two orphaned survivors, Mahlia and Mouse, and their struggle to survive in a world ravaged by civil war and demagogues who recruit children to become killing machines. The story takes a surprising turn when they meet Tool, a bioengineered creature who was once a weapon of war but is now hunted by soldiers. The book's most unique feature is its exploration of humanity and trust in a world where survival is the only option. Recommended for fans of dystopian fiction and adventure.
