I enjoyed the contrast between the two main characters – Aluna as a warrior and Hoku as a scientist. The current situation is one that developed from the founding of the various colonies, so as well as travelling the world, they also have to learn about their past. The world is a dystopian spin on old mythology, without being too gritty. They’re under attack from the upgraders (cyborgs).
In the above world, there are unaltered humans, bird people and horse people (among others).
The adults won’t do anything, so Aluna and her friend Hoku travel up to the surface to find answers (young Kampii don’t get their mermaid tails until they’re older, so they still have legs). The breathing technology used by the Kampii (mermaids) is failing. Genre: Middle Grade Science Fiction / Novel
