このコンテンツについて
The impending destruction of a forest triggers a battle between two siblings, and nature and humankind, in a gripping and provocative novel by the author of The Canopy Keepers.
As climate disasters wreak havoc, a sister and brother take opposing sides on the fate of the human race.
Syrah Carthan wants to save it. A tour guide for the Sequoia National Park, Syrah has an affinity for the millennia-old giants that extends to Rhiza, a subterranean world as ancient as Earth itself. Syrah is the reluctant heir apparent as its Keeper. Her duty is to maintain a balance between nature and humans. But Syrah’s greatest adversary has his duty as well.
Romelo, Syrah’s brother, wants humankind to get what it deserves. To protect the forests, he’s already instigated one battle that ended in chaos and death. To reverse the near extinction of the magnificent trees, Romelo’s next move is to conspire with the sequoias themselves. If all goes according to plan, it will leave human beings absolutely breathless.
The siblings are going to battle. In the worlds above and below, only one of them can emerge victorious.

“Golden Voice Robin Miles returns to narrate the second audiobook in the duology.… Miles portrays Syrah's struggle to become Keeper of Rhitza, a position committed to restoring the balance between humans and trees. In contrast, Miles depicts the rage of Romelo, who has determined that humans must go. Miles adopts a relaxed pace as she introduces a variety of humans and creatures of nature, but she expresses intense emotions as the plot reaches a crisis.” —AudioFile Magazine
“Henry deftly balances the perspectives of the clearly defined hero and villain, both of whom are ultimately working towards the same goal of restoring nature.”—Booklist
“Singularly interesting and conflicting values are deftly embedded into an action/adventure storyline that holds the reader’s full attention, A Breathless Sky will prove an enduringly popular and highly prized pick…”—Midwest Book Review
