HTML:<b>"There have been a lot of books heralded as heirs to <i>Infinite Jest</i>, but I can happily say: this is it." — Leah Schnelbach, Tor.com<br /> A sprawling, genre-defying epic set in a dystopian metropolis plagued by dragons, this debut about what it's like to be young in a very old world is pure storytelling pleasure</b><br /> <br /> In the burned-out, futuristic city of Empire Island, three young people navigate a crumbling metropolis constantly under threat from a pair of dragons that circle the skies. When violence strikes, reality star Duncan Humphrey Ripple V, the spoiled scion of the metropolis' last dynasty; Baroness Swan Lenore Dahlberg, his tempestuous, death-obsessed betrothed; and Abby, a feral beauty he discovered tossed out with the trash; are forced to flee everything they've ever known. As they wander toward the scalded heart of the city, they face fire, conspiracy, mayhem, unholy drugs, dragon-worshippers, and the monsters lurking inside themselves. In this bombshell of a novel, Chandler Klang Smith has imagined an unimaginable world: scathingly clever and gorgeously strange, <i>The Sky Is Yours</i> is at once faraway and disturbingly familiar, its singular chaos grounded in the universal realities of love, family, and the deeply human desire to survive at all costs.<br /> <br /> <i>The Sky Is Yours</i> is incredibly cinematic, bawdy, rollicking, hilarious, and utterly unforgettable, a debut that readers who loved <i>Cloud Atlas</i>, <i>Super Sad True Love Story</i>, and <i>Blade Runner</i> will adore.
