About “The song of the orphans”
The second book in the genre-bending Silvers series follows six extraordinary people whose fates become intertwined on an Earth different from their own. Hannah and Amanda Given were saved from an apocalypse by three mysterious beings and transported to a world where restaurants float like flying saucers and time is manipulated by household appliances. They join four other survivors marked with silver bracelets. Hunted by enemies and struggling with unwanted temporal abilities, the group travels to find a man who can offer them shelter. Six months later, the Silvers face greater dangers as their world dies, a clan of timebenders wants them dead, and a spy agency is after them. New allies also threaten the group. The biggest danger may come from the Pelletiers, the beings who brought them to this world, whose true motives will change everything.
Praise for “The song of the orphans”
“As intriguing as The Flight of the Silvers was, this follow-up is even more mind-bending...and the relationships between the characters (who are now more like a family than a group of strangers thrown together) are richer and more intricate. A brilliantly imagined fantasy.”
“Conjures a detailed, fantastic alternate Earth, populated with vulnerable, relatable characters from this Earth who readers will enthusiastically follow anywhere. Speculative fiction writers wear imagination like a suit of clothes, and Daniel Price has a closetful.”
“Dazzlingly original and nimbly told, Daniel Price’s Silvers series brims with mind-bending fun.”
