   Merlin wakes to a world that is utterly changed. She has no memory aside from a name whispered to her by one of the strange voices in her mind, and the knowledge that she is being hunted.

Scatterlings review by Nef.
The oft overlooked Scatterlings is one of Isobelle Carmody’s earlier works. Set inside a post apocalyptic world, this novel looks at how the present world and our actions in it can and will affect future generations.
Merlin wakes up in an ambulance. A crashed ambulance. She doesn’t know where she is or how she came to be there. She doesn’t even really know who she is. All she has to go on is what the voices in her head tell her – and the information they give her doesn’t match the world around her...
