Power is shifting...

Nothing will ever be the same again. 

Edgar, a gifted climber, is a lonely boy scaling the perilous cliffs that separate three worlds: a humble grove that is the only home he's ever known... a mysterious highland realm of untold beauty and sinister secrets, where the water is regulated by the privileged few...  and a vast wasteland where life—if it exists there at all—may be something less than human. 

Edgar is on a mission. He is looking for a treasure lost in the faded memory of his past, hidden in the forbidden rock wall looming above the grove. But the treasure reveals catastrophe. Soon Edgar finds that the world of Atherton is not what he thought it was, but something far more dangerous, with a history he could not have guesses in his wildest imagining.

Long before Atherton, the only fallen paradise was the Dark Planet. 

When Edgar discovers a way to leave the mysterious satellite world of Atherton, he doesn't think twice about the dangers that await him. But the Dark Planet is a shocking departure from the pristine paradise he has left behind...

A toxic wind moves heavily through a forsaken wood filled with mutant creatures. A ship patrols the poisonous waves of a dead sea in search of children to enslave. A fallen leader bitterly awaits Edgar's prophesized arrival. And in the gloom of the Silo—where children toil in the darkness, controlled by two ruthless maniacs—legends of the smartest boy who ever lived are whispered in the dark: Max Harding... an orphan of the Silo, the maker of Atherton, and the last hope of the dying world. 

For Edgar, the secrets of Dr. Harding's unfinished work lie hidden in this shadowy prison, and he must unlock the mystery and complete the mad scientist's spectacular plan, revealing Atherton's true purpose. 

In the dazzling conclusion to the epic story of Atherton, Patrick Carman takes readers on the most rewarding journey of all, to the perilous realm of the Dark Planet: Earth.
