Rise of Gaia

What if someone was slowly killing you? But you had no voice. No way to beg for help. Wouldn’t that make you angry? Wouldn’t that make you want to fight back? You know how in Sixteen Candles, Samantha Baker dreams of getting a Corvette and a hot guy for her sixteenth birthday? Well, the Corvette is a gas guzzler, and I could take or leave the guy if he’s as slow to catch on as Jake Ryan. What I can tell you is that I absolutely didn’t want a crazy vision of a hellish dystopia courtesy of a very pissed-off Mother Earth. So much for birthday wishes. Now I’m stuck with the Mother of All Things pummeling me with visions and cries for help. Add in my best friend, a hippie new-age woman, a Thor look-a-like who thinks he’s some breed of faerie, a raven who follows me around like a witchy familiar, and powers that should only exist in movies and books, and what do you get? My life. Between navigating high school and wrestling with things beyond my understanding, I’d say my seventeenth birthday was a real doozy. Gaia is hounding me day and night, and I don’t know how much longer I can hold out. In fact, with everything she’s showing me, I don’t know that I want to. Time is running out. A wrathful Mother Earth is gathering her army. And, weirdly, I’m the only thing that could save humanity or doom it. Contemporary young adult fantasy collides with magical realism, fae lore, climate fiction, and the power of friendship.
