The City in the Middle of the Night

n nA LOCUS AWARD FINALIST n nCharlie Jane Anders, the nationally bestselling author of All the Birds in the Sky delivers a brilliant new novel set in a hauntingly strange future with #10 LA Times bestseller The City in the Middle of the Night. n nWOULD YOU GIVE UP EVERYTHING TO CHANGE THE WORLD? n nHumanity clings to life on January--a colonized planet divided between permanently frozen darkness on one side, and blazing endless sunshine on the other. n nTwo cities, built long ago in the meager temperate zone, serve as the last bastions of civilization--but life inside them is just as dangerous as the uninhabitable wastelands outside. n nSophie, a young student from the wrong side of Xiosphant city, is exiled into the dark after being part of a failed revolution. But she survives--with the help of a mysterious savior from beneath the ice. n nBurdened with a dangerous, painful secret, Sophie and her ragtag group of exiles face the ultimate challenge--and they are running out of time. n nWELCOME TO THE CITY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT n nLike a classic from another timeline... this book has notes of Ursula K. Le Guin and Phillip Pullman. --Robin Sloan, author of Sourdoughn
