Book description:
"The sea has taken everything.

Mau is the only one left after a giant wave sweeps his island village away. But when much is taken, something is returned, and somewhere in the jungle Daphne—a girl from the other side of the globe—is the sole survivor of a ship destroyed by the same wave.

Together the two confront the aftermath of catastrophe. Drawn by the smoke of Mau and Daphne's sheltering fire, other refugees slowly arrive: children without parents, mothers without babies, husbands without wives—all of them hungry and all of them frightened. As Mau and Daphne struggle to keep the small band safe and fed, they defy ancestral spirits, challenge death himself, and uncover a long-hidden secret that literally turns the world upside down. . . . "

Will be released at the convention as a RABCK

Thank you so much for thinking of me :) I'm sure I'm going to love it!

A fantastic book in more ways than one. It's impressive to see the way Terry Pratchett handles adult themes of death, loss, (in)justice, creationism vs science, in what might fool you for a children's book.

This was a magical journey, thank you for sharing! The book is now ready to travel to feltre as a top 3 wishlist match.

Posting tomorrow morning to feltre.
Happy reading!

The book arrived today. Thank you very much!

I like all the books written by Pratchett but I loved this one most of all.

I love the idea of Book Crossing and books travelling around the world.
Pratchett is an all-time favourite for me, though it was my first non-Discworld novel to stumble upon.
Being somewhat obsessed with his work, and absolutely aghast at the different ways he can ask the difficult questions and hint to the answers, combined with his unique humor... I have to inform you that I have kept this book for my Pratchett collection.
Please don't hold it against me, and thank you for the lovely gift. I will soon release some other book for a lucky passer-by to discover.
Thank you.
