Kirmen is different...

Ignotus Award-winning Spanish author Cristina Jurado imagines the horrifying ways our species must adapt to a world-wide ecological disaster.

Kirmen is different than the others in the Cloister. Due to inhumane and endless experiments performed on Kirmen, his skin, his eyes, and even his organs are changing. Kirmen wonders if he even belongs with the other inhabitants of the dome that protects the last remnants of humanity from the forever storm raging against its protective walls. Kirmen's dreams of love, of acceptance, slip away with every treatment.

What will happen when the doctor's transformative experiments are complete? What will Kirmen be then?

Will he be a savior ... or a monster?
