The Drowned Cities (Ship Breaker, #2)
by Paolo Bacigalupi
by Paolo Bacigalupi
Teen/Adult
Amazing, amazing. 24 hours after closing the covers and I can't stop thinking about it.
Props to Bacigalupi for keeping the ending as real and heartbreaking as the rest of the book. These children are not going to be redeemed. War has fundamentally changed them so it is fitting that their salvation finally comes in a brutal attack, not a rousing speech that makes those in power realize how misguided they have been.
