A hospital is preserved, afloat, after the Earth is flooded beneath seven miles of water. Inside, assailed by mysterious forces, doctors and patients are left to remember the world they've lost and to imagine one to come. At the center, Jemma Claflin, a medical student, finds herself gifted with strange powers and a frightening destiny. Simultaneously epic and intimate, wildly imaginative and unexpectedly relevant, The Children's Hospital is a work of stunning scope, mesmerizing detail, and wrenching emotion.

The Children's Hospital! One of those books that blew my mind & I feel like no one around me has read...so good and not like anything I'd normally choose to read. Happy to see a few folks on this thread have read it, too.

Oh The Children's Hospital is incredible. Completely dropped off my radar since it's been an age since Adrian last published.
