Set in a near-future world on the brink of ecological collapse, Green Rising perfectly blends science and magic in a passionate call to arms. A gripping and witty speculative novel with a dose of enemies-to-lovers romance.
"A whip-smart tale that asks big, bold questions of how we can save the planet." L. R. Lam, author of Dragonfall
"A smart, brilliantly realized call to arms." The Observer
"Frighteningly clever and richly imagined." Laura Wood, author of The Agency for Scandal
In a climate catastrophe ... resistance is taking root.
Gabrielle is a climate-change activist who shoots to fame when she becomes the first teenager to display a supernatural ability to grow plants from her skin. Hester is the millionaire daughter of an oil tycoon and the face of the family business. Theo comes from a long line of fishermen, but his parents are struggling to make ends meet.
On the face of it, the three have very little in common. Yet when Hester and Theo join Gabrielle and legions of other teenagers around the world in developing the strange new "Greenfingers" power, it becomes clear that to use their ability for good, they'll need to learn to work together.
As they navigate first love and family expectations, can the three teenagers pull off the ultimate heist and bring about a green rising?

"Inventive, gripping, and ultimately hopeful... [A] fantastic tale bursting with a diverse range of intrepid teenagers, coming-of-age themes." BookTrust
"Effortlessly mixes magic and science with strong, likeable characters and a smart plot." Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear

Rezension

James's speculative thrillers have covered topics as diverse as time travel, cloning and space travel. In Green Rising, she turns her attention to the climate emergency. In the near future, on an increasingly uninhabitable Earth, thousands of teenagers around the world suddenly develop 'Green fingers' powers - the ability to grow plants from their own skin. The race is on to use their gifts to save the planet and outsmart the corporations who would exploit them. A smart, brilliantly realised call to arms. The Observer (The New Review)
