Synopsis
Best known for ELLA ENCHANTED, children's author Gail Carson Levine has created another fraught tale combining the challenges of coming of age and coping with dangerous times. Promised as a sacrifice to Admat, the one true god, Kezi has little time to ponder her burgeoning love with someone who threatens to tear her world apart. Caught between love, her family, and the gods, Kezi must find her way--with death hanging over her head.
