After the Fall, Before the Fall, During the Fall
by Nancy Kress


In the year 2035, all that is left of humanity lives in the Shell. After ecological disasters have nearly destroyed the Earth, twenty-six survivors are imprisoned in an enclosure built by an alien race. Fifteen-year-old Pete is one of the six children who were born in the Shell. Though deformed from birth, Pete is determined to lead humanity to a new beginning.

"Nebula- and Hugo-winner Kress mixes time travel, global catastrophe, and mysterious aliens in this strong postapocalyptic tale.... Kress handles the crisscrossing timelines with cool elegance." -Publishers Weekly
