Storyline
In 2500, as a result of the sea levels rising over 7,600 metres, every continent on Earth is now underwater. The remains of human civilization live on ramshackle floating communities known as atolls, having long forgotten about living on land. Just then, the atoll is attacked by the Smokers, a gang of pirates seeking a girl named Enola who, according to their leader the Deacon, has a map to Dryland tattooed on her back.

Novelizations aren’t just a transcription of the film story. They also add details and backstory to the plot in a literary way.
“Making the book into a television show makes it feel so much more real and so much more like a real rock documentary.”
