Told in three separate story lines, Lowry's Son combines elements from the first three novels in her Giver Quartet--The Giver, winner of the 1994 Newbery Medal, Gathering Blue, and Messenger--into a thought-provoking narrative that wrestles with ideas of human freedom. Thrust again into the dark, claustrophobic world of The Giver, readers will meet an intriguing new heroine, fourteen-year-old Claire. Jonas from The Giver is here too, and Kira, the heroine of Gathering Blue. In a final clash between good and evil, a new hero emerges.
