Addition to Dystopian Domination: Solstice by PJ Hoover


Hi everyone! So…you all know about Dystopian Domination, right? Well, Kai and I added another author and a new release novel to our line-up. You’ve probably heard about this novel and have seen it around the blogosphere - Solstice by PJ Hoover

Two of the things I like most in YA come together in this novel: mythology and dystopia. I’m incredibly curious to know how! In the meantime, you can check all the Dystopian Domination posts here.

Where Mythology and Dystopia meet...
 
Piper’s world is dying. Global warming kills every living thing on Earth, and each day brings hotter temperatures and heat bubbles which threaten to destroy humanity. Amid this Global Heating Crisis, Piper lives with her mother who suffocates her more than the chaotic climate. When her mother is called away to meet the father Piper has been running from her entire life, Piper seizes an opportunity for freedom.

But when Piper discovers a world of mythology she never knew existed, she realizes her world is not the only one in crisis. While Gods battle for control of the Underworld, Piper's life spirals into turmoil, and she struggles to find answers to secrets kept from her since birth. And though she’s drawn to her classmate Shayne, he may be more than he claims. Piper has to choose whom she can trust and how she can save the people she loves even if it means the end of everything she’s ever known.
