Summary:
"Avi's ground-breaking graphic novel celebrates its twentieth anniversary! Two kids fight to save their city from eternal winter in this fantasy by Avi, illustrated by Brian Floca. The Kurbs give people light and warmth to establish a city, on one condition: The people must return the Power every year or risk losing the city -- forever. This system works for centuries until evil Mr. Underton tries to steal the Power. If he succeeds, the Kurbs will take back the City, reducing it to a dark and frozen tundra. It's up to Carlos and Sarah to find the Power -- housed in a subway token -- and keep the City safe, despite secrets of Sarah's history that are entwined with the token. What ensues is a race against darkness. A race against the lies of the past. And most of all, a race against time"--Provided by publisher.
