Without a World (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780578990880)

A dying planet. A mythical new world. Miranda struggles through each day in the Trash Lands, scraping for food and water, wishing she could blend into the sea of ash. The best part of her day is working a meaningless job in a place where people pretend she doesn't exist. Dismayed to learn her mother was right, Earth will get sucked into a black hole, Miranda must trust in skills she never knew she had to get to a place she refused to believe existed. But when they learn the black hole is no natural phenomenon, Miranda can't turn her back on the suffering of Earth, and saving it could cost more than she ever knew.
