Shade"s Children

On your 14th birthday, you’re dead meat…

Chilling SF adventure from international bestselling author Garth Nix.

The mysterious Shade – once a man, but now more like the machines he fights – recruits the few children fortunate enough to escape. With luck, cunning, and skill, four of Shade's children come closer than any to discovering the source of the Overlords' power – and the key to their downfall. But the closer the children get, the more ruthless Shade seems to become…
