Saba has lived in the desolation surrounding the dried-up Silverlake for all of her eighteen years. The family has just one neighbour - a chaal addict, so not exactly sociable - so Saba's only companions are her father, her twin brother Lugh, and younger sister Emmi. Saba worships Lugh, resents Emmi for their mother's death in childbirth, and is confused by her father, who believes he can read the future in the stars. But it's all she knows and as long as Lugh is close, she's happy enough.
If they liked this, they'll also love the superb [[The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness|Chaos Walking]] sequence by Patrick Ness - everyone should read it! For a similar setting with some zombies thrown in for good measure, we can also recommend [[Rot & Ruin by Jonathan Maberry]]. [[The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins]] is another good read along these lines.
