Cyber nation - Erica Blaney

Centuries from now, the planet Clandoi is frozen and exists without sun or stars. For Solly and Lalune a life of darkness is what they know ... along with their forbidden friendship. Solly is a Wayfarer, the lowest caste on the planet, while Lalune is a rich, pampered Appaloosian. As the story opens, sadistic ruling forces have trapped Lalune and her parents in the sinister cyberclinic, intent on harvesting their body parts, while Solly's parents have been arrested and taken from him. Grief-stricken and frightened, Solly's only support comes in the shape of the wise old Seer Aube. It is Aube who reveals to Solly that far from being helpless, he is named in an age old prophecy as one of three extraordinary children who have the power to use the Key of Being. The key that will free Clandoi to thrive once again as a planet. Time is running out for Clandoi, and Solly must act quickly in finding the key and using it. But time is also running out for his beloved Lalune ... If he doesn't reach her before her body is harvested he will lose her for ever. Waylaid on his journey by an eccentric little Wayfarer girl, Etolantie, and the malign-seeming Sybilla Geepool, Solly almost doesn't make it back to the clinic in time, but by the skin of his teeth he arrives to rescue Lalune and start the search for his parents, the secret of the Key of Being, and for the identity of the two other chosen ones to use the Key ... Will his quest be successful? All is revealed in part two, The Key to Clandoi.
