  <default_description>&lt;p&gt; Nearly twenty years after the city of Anchorage settled down on the shores of the Dead Continent of America, Tom and Hester are leading quiet, peaceful lives. Their wild adventures happened so long ago that they seem like little more than stories told to children -- children such as their own daughter, Wren, who is so exquisitely bored that she'd welcome any sort of excitement. . . . &lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt; So when a trio of Lost Boys asks her to steal the mysterious and deadly Tin Book of Anchorage, Wren is only too happy to help. But the theft goes wrong, and the Lost Boys steal Wren, too, leaving Tom and Hester no choice: They must abandon their peaceful life and rescue their daughter. Their search will reunite them with enemies they thought they'd left behind forever, will ask of them sacrifices that no parent can make, and will cost one of them everything that matters most. &lt;/p&gt;</default_description>

For one, letting your main characters grow up between books rarely works, because they inevitably don't turn out to really be the same characters any more.

    <body><![CDATA[Really enjoyed this.  I love the way Reeve never has things turn out as you expect, and also his fully-rounded, unreliable, fickle, believable characters.<br/><br/>Almost wasted on the young :D.<br/><br/><em>Waterstones</em>.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I've devoured every book in this series finishing them in 48 hours if notunder 24. Philip Reeve has written some brilliant YA pulp adventure novels with this series. I will be crushed when there is no more after <em>A Darkling Plain</em>.]]></body>
