|summary=Tony DiTerlizzi's name will be familiar to many readers as the co-creator of the [[A Giant Problem (Beyond the Spiderwick Chronicles) by Holly Black and Tony DiTerlizzi|Spiderwick Chronicles]], and it is entirely possible that this new trilogy will become just as popular. It is a charming tale of a young girl who has never seen another human being and who has been brought up by a kindly robot in an underground home. Right from the very first pages we suspect things are not going well: lights flicker and malfunction, machinery and furniture is chipped and scratched, and even the wheel Eva's robot mother moves around on is tread-worn. Eva is being trained to go up into the outside world to meet other humans, but there has been no contact from other Sanctuaries, as the underground homes are called, for a long time. Eva will very soon need to go out and discover for herself if there are any other humans on this strange and colourful planet.
