Author Description

I've heard tales about the sun and the moon. My mother used to tell me they were never in the same place in the sky, and that once, people would tell the time of day by them. She was never fortunate enough to see such a thing with her own eyes, but her own parents spoke wistfully of them often, making the world above, the world lost to us so many years ago, seem magical and fantastical.In my wildest dreams, I never thought I would see that world. Spoiled, pampered Aliah has found her way to someplace very different from her technologically-advanced underground world. A place where people fight for survival, and even the king is a violent savage. The inhabitants of this place are all coming to terms with a frightening reality: Inch by inch, the kingdom of Tides is dying.But are these people truly lost? The more time she spends with King Wallow, the more she begins to settle in, and forget the life she left behind. Still, this kingdom is not kind, and there are horrors and secrets behind every wall. Is it possible to survive, or is finding a way back home her only chance?
