Description
In a world where the earth is shrouded in a deadly white mist, humanity clings to its highest peaks. Thirteen-year-old Chess and his friends live in a precarious existence, scavenging for survival amidst the ruins of the lower slopes. Their rickety air raft takes them on perilous journeys through the Fog, searching for anything they can sell to stay alive. But their situation is about to become even more desperate. Mrs. E, the beloved matriarch of Chess's life, is suffering from a mysterious illness known as fogsickness. The only place where she might find a cure is the miraculous city of Port Oro, hidden deep within the Fog. However, they are not the only ones searching for it - Lord Kodoc will stop at nothing to claim its secrets for himself. As Chess navigates this treacherous landscape, he must confront his deepest fears and make impossible choices to protect his friends and those he loves.
