REVIEWS
Canadian Editions: BELOW, ABOVE, and BEYOND
AUTHOR Jason Chabot (sha-bō′) grew up in the rural outskirts of a small B.C. town called Chilliwack – a Stó:lō First Nations word meaning “quieter water up the river” – where getting only one channel on television meant he had plenty of time to let his imagination soar to Above and Beyond, whenever he felt stuck in Below. After graduating from the University of British Columbia with an honors business degree, Jason worked as a finance director in Vancouver for over a decade, crunching numbers by day, but writing stories during every spare minute he could find.
“With its inventive world-building and epic scope, Below hooked me from
the very first lines and had me eagerly flipping the pages. But it’s Chabot’s
unique and compelling characters from different worlds, especially Elia
and Hokk, that pulled me through… Highly recommended.”
Jennifer Brody, author of The 13th Continuum
But you know how it
all ends, right?
Hokk scavenges the lifeless bodies that
fall from the clouds, hoping the human
remains might offer meagre treasures to
help him survive. On the barren plains of
Below, he is a criminal living in exile with
his fox sidekick, Nym, amid the remnants
of our modern age.
Under a shattered moon, Elia lives on the
floating islands in the skies of Above,
where the islands’ edges are borders no
one dares to cross, except for the ritual
burials that send their dead to Below.
As a child laborer, she toils in endless
drudgery, up until the fateful morning
when she discovers a mystery swirling
around her family’s past. But before she
can unravel the secrets, a series of natural
disasters rumble through Above, bringing
both worlds – and Hokk and Elia – ever
closer. Then comes the day when the
earth crumbles below Elia’s feet, and –
She falls.
When Hokk rescues this strange girl who miraculously survives plunging
into an ocean of Below, he realizes she might be the key to finally ending his
banishment. Both teens are desperate to return to the homes they’ve lost,
and while challenging each other’s perception of reality, their journey
together propels them across endless plains, through shattered cities, and
into mirrored palaces in a centuries-old struggle for the very earth and sky
around them.
The epic adventure continues…
Elia has been separated from Hokk for
many weeks as she
struggles to live
with the Torkin
marauders.
Viewed as a
dangerous outsider,
she works tirelessly
to gain their acceptance,
though all the while she has
resigned herself to never being able to
return to her home above the clouds.
Yet Hokk has found a way to leave Below
for good, and once he crosses forbidden
boundaries to track Elia down in the
mountains, they finally escape and fly
away to Above.
Together, they embark on a perilous quest
that takes them across the scorched sand dunes of a desolate floating island,
where the sun’s deadly rays endanger Hokk’s life. Their only hope of survival
is to be saved by a family with important ties to the privileged classes which
Elia has been trying to infiltrate. As she digs deeper, scandalous secrets are
revealed, threatening to destroy everything Elia has been trying to do to save
Hokk, herself, and her own family from the forces that would see them
eliminated.
Now as a fugitive, Elia is on the run
from Imperial Guards, who have
launched a city-wide manhunt for
her capture. Hokk is also on Elia’s
trail – unfortunately one step behind
and all too aware of the mortal danger
she is in.
Elia possesses evidence that could
topple the oppressive monarchy,
but it is becoming increasingly difficult
to know who is the enemy and who is an
ally in the quest to overcome those who
have wrought misery in the realms of
Above and Below.
As their worlds drift ever farther apart,
Elia and Hokk will have to decide where
they truly belong, and what it means to
be reunited.
