Lennox, Vonnie and Ava head to Greenland to meet up with Heather, Sandy and the Enceladons, commencing an epic showdown that will change everything ... The emotive, devastating yet ultimately life-affirming conclusion to the bestselling Enceladons Trilogy, as seen on BBC2's Between the Covers...
`An affecting and thought-provoking read. Johnstone's worldbuilding is top notch in this pacy eco-alien tale of peril and hope¿ Tendai Huchu
`Doug Johnstone has emerged as the unholy, octopoid lovechild of David Attenborough and Michael Crichton ... a thrilling, action-packed adventure¿ Callum McSorley
`Forget what you think you know about science fiction ... pick up this book if you want to explore what it means to be human, with all the hopes and fears, loves and losses that brings - something Johnstone has done in so many of his novels, but rarely as beautifully as he does in this trilogy¿ Scotsman
`Surprising, compelling and out of this world¿ Ann Morgan
`Johnstone brilliantly plays out the tensions between competing groups and their response to the peaceful aliens off the coast of Greenland. But will they survive? Johnstone is a born storyteller whatever the subject¿ Mirror
`A delight! We need more novels that take on human exceptionalism with such gustö Ever Dundas
______
It's been eighteen months since the Enceladons escaped the clutches of an American military determined to exterminate the peaceful alien creatures.
Lennox and Vonnie have been lying low in the Scottish Highlands, Ava has been caring for her young daughter Chloe, and Heather is adjusting to her new life with Sandy and the other Enceladons in the Arctic Ocean, off the coast of Greenland. But fate is about to bring them together again for one last battle.
When Lennox and Vonnie are visited by Karl Jensen, a Norwegian billionaire intent on making contact with the Encedalons again, they are wary of subjecting the aliens to further dangers. But when word arrives that Ava's daughter has suffered an attack and might die without urgent help, they reluctantly make the trip to Greenland, where they enlist the vital help of local woman Niviaq.
It's not long before they're drawn into a complex web of lies, deceit and death. What is Karl's company really up to? Why are sea creatures attacking boats? Why is Sandy acting so strangely, and why are polar bears getting involved?
Profound, ambitious and immensely moving, The Transcendent Tide is the epic conclusion to the Encedalons Trilogy - a final showdown between the best and worst of humanity, the animal kingdom and the Encedalons. The future of life on earth will be changed forever, but not everyone will survive to see it...
