Description
A tank-bred axolotl, Zephyr, finds himself in a fight for survival between warring axolotl factions in this action-packed adventure for fans of Warrior Cats, with 24 black-and-white illustrations throughout. Zephyr isn't out to make friends. After a grueling escape from an axolotl breeding facility, all he cares about is being reunited with his sister, Luna. He places his trust in Neptune, a wise tiger salamander who promises to look for her. But the search is fraught, and Neptune refuses to venture above the surface at nightfall. Feeling betrayed, Zephyr sets off on his own and soon encounters Jasper, an ambitious axolotl hungry for power. Zephyr quickly finds himself embroiled in a fight between some axolotls who believe regeneration is the key to survival and others who want to evolve into salamanders and roam free. The struggle for power is vicious, and there are many more dangers waiting for them around the lake. This thrilling adventure is complete with legendary battles, incredible alliances, and a moving search for belonging at the heart of it all.
