Overview
Two-time Carnegie Medalist Patrick Ness makes a thrilling return to the world of Chaos Walking with this launch of the extraordinary New World trilogy.
Some twenty years have elapsed since the denouement of Monsters of Men, and our young narrator feels a sense of foreboding. The fragile sense of security established by a previous generation in New World—led by his parents, Todd and Viola—feels much at risk, with a hostile force encroaching from the reaches of space. In this first of a highly anticipated new trilogy, Patrick Ness once again taps into the zeitgeist, drawing on themes of war and loyalty and wrestling with questions of forgiveness and moral ambiguity: Who are the good guys, and who are the bad guys? What happens when it’s not possible to reduce everyone to an enemy or a friend? And how do you live with those who once oppressed you? Piper at the Gates of Dusk is poised to captivate both fervent fans of the Chaos Walking series and readers discovering its world for the first time.
