When a plane crash-lands in the arctic, eight young survivors step from the wreckage expecting to see nothing but ice and snow. Instead they find themselves lost in a strange jungle with no way to get home and little hope of rescue.
Food is running out. Water is scarce. And the jungle is full of threats unlike anything the survivors have ever seen before--from razor-beaked shredder birds to carnivorous vines to the mysterious predator stalking the wilderness in the dead of night, whose chilling cries seem to be getting closer...
In horizon, bestselling author Scott Westerfeld brings his visionary talentsn to a harrowing tale of mystery and menace--a supernatural survival story in which the smallest decision can be a matter of life and death, and the greatest threat of all just might be the kid standing right next to you.
