About this ebook

When rebellion destroys the underground world in which Thimble and Stone have grown up, they take Stone's son and try to escape the chaos. Along the way, they must evade the Freaks, beings who feed on human flesh. Leaving behind the roles of Builder and Breeder which they were assigned at birth, they wander the underground tunnels, looking for safety yet afraid to go "topside" where legend has it that the light and water will burn their skin from their bones.

Their journey takes them upward to an unimagined world of tinned food, comfortable furniture, and books. Away from their regimented society for the first time, and still facing imminent danger, Thimble and Stone acknowledge the forbidden attraction which both have denied for years.

Ratings and reviews

It's really only 66 pages long because the other 20 odd is a chapter of Outpost which is the next book in the series. I read this one last when I'd already the whole series. I really recommend doing that because the series shocks you to the core in the third book and it all makes sense when you read this at the end even though it's technically number 1.5. Incredible end amazing series I highly recomend it. :-)

Before reading horde, i thought thimble and stone fully turned their backs on deuce because they truly believed the elders, but this book explains it all and i love it

Could not put the book down. Love the creativity and imagination put in the boom . From the very first page til the end it was great
