Description
In the heart of an aged city, life is a struggle. Without electricity or paved roads, the residents must scavenge what they can to survive. Young alligator Riley dreams of making it in the baking world, but even with the help of his friends, it's hard to get by. Riley bakes his first cake to sell, hoping to make a name for himself. Instead, he catches the attention of Captain Kauffner, who sets off a chain of events that puts Riley and his companions in danger. They must dodge the dead things roaming the streets, deal with rival bakers, and face other challenges as they navigate the wilds surrounding the city. As Riley navigates this new world, he discovers courage in unexpected places - like cake icing and sugar. With vivid imagination and a story of community, catastrophe, and cake, Nicholas Whitcomb's debut novel is sure to resonate with readers of fantasy and horror.
