In the coming centuries the world’s population has exploded. The planet earth is crowded with cities, pets are nearly all extinct, about Lighthouse Isle: A Book and drought is indeed widespread that water is rationed. You will find no maps, no edges, no numbered years, and no freedom, except for an elite few.
It is a harsh globe for an orphan like Nadia Stepan. Developing up, she dreams of a green holiday spot called Lighthouse Island, in a place called the Pacific Northwest.
When an opportunity for escape arises, Nadia embarks on the dangerous and sometimes comic adventure. Along the way she matches a guy who adjustments the span of her existence: James Orotov, a mapmaker and demolition professional. Together, they evade arrest and head north toward a location of outrageous beauty that is situated beyond the megapolis-Lighthouse Island.
