Synopsis

A thrilling genre-bending saga about six extraordinary people whose fates become intertwined on an Earth far different from their own. Without warning, the world comes to an end for Hannah and Amanda Given. The sky looms frigid white. The electricity falters. Airplanes everywhere crash to the ground. But the Givens are saved by mysterious strangers, three fearsome and beautiful beings who force a plain silver bracelet onto each sister' s wrist. Within moments, the sky comes down in a crushing sheet of light and everything around them is gone. Shielded from the devastation by their silver adornments, the Givens suddenly find themselves elsewhere, a strange new Earth where restaurants move through the air like flying saucers and the fabric of time is manipulated by common household appliances. Soon Hannah and Amanda are joined by four other survivors from their world-- a mordant cartoonist, a shy teenage girl, a brilliant young Australian, and a troubled ex-prodigy. Hunted by enemies they never knew they had and afflicted with temporal abilities they never wanted, the sisters and their companions begin a cross-country journey to find the one man who can save them-- before time runs out. Brilliantly imagined and electrifying from the first page, The Flight of the Silvers is the thrilling first book in a genre-bending new series.

In the chance that Past-Sarah doesn't win the giveaway, to make sure she goes and buys this book. Within the first few pages, where events of a......more

Goodreads review by Tara on February 12, 2014

As others have noted, this book's first chapter contains A LOT of exposition ... but I can deal with exposition, especially when the payoff is an alternate world as nuanced and imaginative as this AltAmerica. I loved the world Mr. Price has created in The Flight of the Silvers. (In fact, as I was re......more

Goodreads review by Kate on January 03, 2018

The opening chapter of this book completely captivated me and the great news is that the rest of The Flight of the Silvers lived up to it, through all of its 600 glorious pages. Mindbending and bonkers in places, this is a fantastic beautifully written piece of speculative fiction, introducing us to......more

Goodreads review by Iris on May 22, 2014

I've just recently finished this book, and have to say I think it was an excellent read!! Especially do to the fact that this is Mr. Price's first venture into a beloved and seriously "hard to compete with" world of science fiction/fantasy ;-) If his future books are this good (better no doubt;)then......more
