Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The thrilling and long-awaited conclusion to the Newbery Medal-winning Giver Quartet by Lois Lowry.
They called her Water Claire. When she washed up on their shore, no one knew that she came from a society where emotions and colors didn't exist.
That she had become a Vessel at age thirteen. That she had carried a Product at age fourteen. That it had been stolen from her body. Claire had a son. But what became of him she never knew. What was his name? Was he even alive? She was supposed to forget him, but that was impossible.
Now Claire will stop at nothing to find her child, even if it means making an unimaginable sacrifice.
Son thrusts readers once again into the chilling world of the Newbery Medal-winning The Giver, as well as the companion books Gathering Blue and Messenger. In this thrilling series finale, the startling and long-awaited conclusion to Lois Lowry's epic tale culminates in a final clash between good and evil in which a new hero emerges.
Companion book to: The Giver, Gathering blue, and Messenger.
Unlike the other Birthmothers in her utopian community, teenaged Claire forms an attachment to her baby, feeling a great loss when he is taken to the Nurturing Center to be adopted by a family unit.
