Gutierrez, Dave. 2009 IDW Publishing (San Diego, California), 5 1/2 x 8 1/4 inches tall paperback in glossy color covers, [8], 230 pp. Very slight rubbing to covers.

Half the world is in shadows while the other half suffers under an endless afternoon of sun. Humans have devolved into small creatures struggling for survival in a savage jungle where plants prey upon living flesh. In this deadly land, a young boy on the brink of manhood is cast off by his tribe for the crime of curiosity - and embarks on a perilous journey far beyond the borders of his people's land in search of a better world. Hugo Award Winner.
Synopsis
The Sun is about to go Nova. Earth and Moon have ceased their axial rotation and present one face continuously to the sun. The bright side of Earth is covered with carnivorous forest. This is the Age of vegetables. Gren and his lady - not to mention the tummybelly men - journey to the even more terrifying Dark side. One of Aldiss' most famous and long-enduring novels, fast moving, packed with brilliant imagery.
