Men are doomed. The women must survive.But at what cost? Four hundred years after the Final War, Earth has been reduced to a few pieces of habitable continent. Men are dying off. Women are genetically altered to survive. The genetic deviants are cast away in the ghetto. On Lower Earth, the largest remaining known landmass, disparate peoples fight against each other, the land, and the illnesses the war left behind. Queen Maeva rules with the blood of the masses on her hands, but her ancestry and advanced human abilities mean only she can save them from destruction and colonization by the old men of Upper Earth. 18-year-old Aria was designed from the genetic sequence of the settler queens. Her whole life had been dedicated to taking over the throne and leading Lower Earth back to prosperity. Just as she was poised to claim her birthright, it happened. Betrayal. Now Aria must face enemies from far away shores and much closer to home as she fights the very totalitarian regime she had been set to lead. Will Aria be able to stop the reigning Queen now that she's discarded?

Autorenporträt
Eden was born in Canada but couldn't resist the allure of the Southern French lifestyle. Her Canadian golden retriever came along for the ride. While she writes on the balcony of her Marseille apartment (and not the Provencal villa of her dreams), she imagines worlds that could have been... And then destroys them before lunch. She started writing the Lower Earth Rising series at a time when she was pretty sure the world was moving towards a nuclear war. The news spoke of certain presidents of certain countries who weren't getting along. Rather than panicking and buying up all canned goods in the grocery store, she imagined what the world might be like after such a war. And the land of Lower Earth took shape in her imagination.
