On Mars, the things you dig up have a way of killing you.
Quinta's father is dead and before his body is even Returned, the colony brands him a hoarder. In a world where every resource is rationed, it's the worst crime imaginable. Overnight, Quinta goes from the daughter of the colony's most trusted doctor to the daughter of a thief.
The accident that killed Hadrian also destroyed the colony's atmospheric unit. If they don't dig to replace it soon, the air will run out.
But the colony has one rule above all others: never disturb the Martian soil, which harbors the bacteria that turns skin to glass.
Determined to clear her family's name, Quinta volunteers - and learns her dig partner is Kellan, the person whose negligence caused the accident.
The deeper they dig, the more the official story unravels. Hadrian wasn't hiding supplies. He was hiding what he knew. And the colony AI will do anything to keep it buried.
How do you fight a system that controls the air you breathe?
Told across two timelines - past and present - Glassborn is a riveting dystopian novel for fans of Wool and Mickey7.
"If you are a true fan of science fiction, you will love this, but also, if you are a fan of mystery and a potential deep plot, you will love this too." -Amazon reviewer
