The Lost Compass
In the high stakes sequel to The Fog Diver, thirteen year old Chess and his crew must stop the deadly and mysterious Fog that covers everything but the mountaintops from enveloping the city of Port Oro and destroying their world.
Thirteen-year-old tetherboy Chess and his crew — Hazel, Swedish, and Bea — may have escaped the slums, but they cannot escape the Fog. When they retreat to the mountaintop sanctuary of Port Oro, they discover that the deadly white mist will soon swallow the entire city.
There’s only one way to stop the fog: an ancient machine known as the Compass. And there’s only one person who can find it: Chess. Along with his crew, Chess journeys to unearth this hidden instrument, but the voyage is filled with dangerous encounters, brutal battles, and deadly driftsharks. Will the slumkids be able to save Port Oro, or will they run out of time?
In the action-packed sequel to The Fog Diver, Joel Ross creates a gritty world filled with fog where adventure lies at every turn, peril lurks behind every corner, and a few determined slumkids must fight for their survival before it’s too late.
