Produktbeschreibung

A threat written in the sky. A disabled girl no one takes seriously. A budding colony marked for death. Blanche, a young paraplegic girl, spent long hours watching the strange clouds dancing in the Phoenix sky. She soon realizes that their coordinated figures signal a threat. Alas, the adults building their city discard her concerns. Even her shy sister Lupianne worries more about the oxygen plant's dropping quotas and her rows with the local Queen Bee. Then, as the cloud dances grow more complex and the temperatures rise to never-seen-before levels, the sisters must join forces with a despised artist to save their budding settlement from total eradication. Clouds of Phoenix is a novel set in the Gayan Alliance universe of multi-award winning author Michèle Laframboise. If you like stories featuring a handicapped heroine and her much put-upon sister going against family and dangers, you'll love this clever planet-opera. Get Clouds of Phoenix to discover the strangest alien contact ever described in science fiction! ------------ The French version of the novel received the Cecile Gagnon Award for best first YA novel published in Canada.
