Description

Karridrae is different, and in the world of the Domes, different is dangerous. In a hostile landscape devoid of plant life; in a future where humanity clings to survival; the way to stay alive is to follow the rules, but what if you can't? Karridrae is an Aberration. Her very existence breaks the rules. Her telepathic abilities simmer beneath a veneer of compliance, a constant danger she must suppress. When a vision of impossible green - a living plant in this dead world - breaks through her mental barriers, her careful facade begins to crack. Ryn is a rebel. An outsider, who sees through Karridrae's carefully constructed walls, revealing connections she's been trained to fear. Their meeting will become the catalyst that unravels everything Karridrae knows.
