After decades of abuse transforms the world into a toxic wasteland,
people flee into the safety of a global network of domed cities.
Within these safe, orderly spaces, the only animals allowed are
machines in the new world's mechanized zoos, called disneys.
Orlando Spinks prides himself on keeping his father's disney
spotless and orderly, until 13-year-old Mooch explodes into his
life and down the throat of a mechanized lion. Mooch quickly
wriggles her way into Orlando's heart with her creative mechanical
genius, fiery spirit, and passion for real animals. As her
rebellious spark spreads to Orlando, they restore the wild spirit
to the mechanical beasts, but catch the eye and ire of the
Overseers. Beautifully written, The Engineer of Beasts brings
together the best of Scott Russell Sanders's environmental wisdom
with skilled world-building and beloved characters.
