The Last Scarecrow
When the human race faces extinction,
the scarecrows will rise!
Erin loved to build scarecrows. She made a dozen in all. Her Pa showed her how. But he’s dead now. Everyone is dead. Well… almost.
The Many Years Storm flooded the world, swept Erin’s brother out to sea, and turned her hilltop farm into a rapidly shrinking island. While hope remains, she must forge strange alliances, lead the charge into battle, and rise against a cyclonic evil, while navigating the perilous oceans to find her brother. But Erin is exhausted, hungry, and short on courage, and there’s no one to galvanise her except the last and most terrifying of all her scarecrows—Number Twelve!
Erin needs help. Scratch that.
Erin needs a miracle.

Erin has not prepared for this.

When all but our hearts have turned to ice…

Erin has scoured the winter waters, bartered tech and trash, and called in every favour… but news of her brother remains agonisingly out of reach.
With the world slipping towards an inhospitable ice age, her struggle becomes more desperate than ever. But with fearsome friends at her side, and the courage to face whatever slithers from the shadows, Erin must brave the harshest of winters, battle her way across frozen wastelands, and mount the roof of the world. But the path to her heart’s desire will require a leap of faith and a sacrifice that could change the very nature of her soul.
