In GloryтАЩs world, different means deviantтАФand dead.
In a post-apocalyptic world, where the earth is buried by asteroid dust thatтАЩs mutated the DNA of some humans, an orphaned sixteen-year-old, Glory, must hide and protect her younger brother. If their Deviant abilities are discovered, theyтАЩll be expungedтАФkicked out of the dome to be tortured and killed by the Shredders. Glory would give anything to get rid of her unique ability to kill with her emotions, especially when Cal, the boy sheтАЩs always liked, becomes a spy for the authorities. But when her brother is discovered, and she learns their father, who was expunged for killing their mother, is still alive, she must escape the domed city thatтАЩs been her entire world.
Outside in the ruins, theyтАЩre pursued by the authorities and by sadistic, scab-covered Shredders who are addicted to the lethal-to-humans dust now covering the planet. GloryтАЩs quests to transport herself and her brother to safety make up the thrilling and fascinating first volume of The Dust Chronicles.
