A NIGHT OWL REVIEWS BOOK REVIEW | Reviewed by: A.M. Donovan
Young love lost, unforseen consequences, poison clouds, xenophobia, war, dying planets and a prophecy, What more could we ask? How about a good story that manages to tie all this together? Gill James manages to do just that in this young adult novel, which manages to be a pleasant read for adults, too. There are dangers, obstacles and above all, in the end, hope.

Book Blurb for The Prophecy
Kaleem Malkendy is different – and, on Terrestra, different is no way to be. Everything about Kaleem marks him out from the rest: the blond hair and dark skin, the humble cave where he lives and the fact that he doesn’t know his father. He’s used to unwelcome attention, but even so, he’d feel better if some strange old man didn’t keep following him around. Then the man introduces himself and begins to explain the Babel Prophecy – and everything in Kaleem’s life changes forever.
