This is definitely one of those sequels where you need to read the prequel first! ''The Children of the Lost'' picks up exactly where [[The Midnight Charter by David WhitelyWhitley|The Midnight Charter]] ends.
Mark and Lily have left Agora and they have no idea what to expect from the land beyond the city walls. They have been brought up within a rigid system based on barter in a city where everything can be traded: goods, services, people, even emotions are up for sale. They have also been taught that outside the city walls is a wilderness, with no civilised life. Do bear in mind here that their idea of civilisation is Agora…They are ill equipped to survive, and immediately make things worse by arguing with one another. Mark is furious with Lily for her part in their banishment and his actions lead to Lily being placed in great danger.
Further reading suggestion:
David Whitley's [[The Midnight Charter by David WhitelyWhitley|The Midnight Charter]] really needs to be read before ''The Children of the Lost''
Fantasy trilogy fans should try Suzanne Collins [[The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins|The Hunger Games]] (all three parts now available!)
