One boy finds his way outside and tries to learn as much as possible so he can ultimately lead his people to the Better Place.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>A Newbery Honor book <p/>This fast-paced story is more than an adventure--it is a search for answers in a bewildering world that is as terrifying as it is beautiful. </b> <p/> Grandfather said they were headed for the Better Place, but Dilar suspected they were headed nowhere, simply following the dark underground river blindly. And so one night he leaped onto a shelf of rock and watched the flotilla of the Raft People disappear. And from there he found his way Outside, into a world so beautiful and strange he could only suppose he had died--a world of day, and sun, of trees and sky. <p/><b>"A highly successful work that can be read as an adventure story, a fantasy, or as allegory"--<i>School Library Journal</i></b><p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br>Grandfather said they were headed for the Better Place, but Dilar suspected they were headed nowhere, simply following the dark underground river blindly.
