When Sloe was little, her father disappeared and she and her mother were sent to a snowy prison camp in a time when everything was terrible and there were no animals. Before their extinction Sloe's parents found a way to preserve the DNA of five different groups of animals. Sloe's mother possesses the "magical" powers to revive these animal DNA in her science teachings. Sloe is sent to a prison school. She is later expelled and must return to the dreadful camp. As she returns to the prison camp she used to call home she discovers her mother is gone. When her mother left her, she hid the powerful DNA for Sloe to find. With the DNA Sloe must battle to preserve them. Sloe sets out on a 1000-mile journey at the age of 13 with these creatures and has to overcome many obstacles on her way to reviving animal life.

 

With a pretty sci-fi feel to the novel, Siberia is an outstanding weekend read. It also possesses that nice heart-warming emotion for those animal lovers out there. Yeah, yeah it doesn't seem like something that would be on a Horror website, but it does have it's strong points. Ana Halam does a great job in this novel adding it to the sci-fi/fantasy category. Overall it was pretty damn good.
