About this ebook
Uncover the power of friendship and the resilience of the human spirit in this enchanting young adult fantasy.
“Deftly mixes magic with human struggles and adolescent foibles . . . to create an irresistible read.”—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
“I’ll read anything by Sharon Shinn. . . . She does wonderful characterizations, and creates page-turners.”—Mary Jo Putney, bestselling author of The Marriage Spell
Kellen’s mother has always insisted that her only child was born male, not female—so Kellen has been raised as a boy. At school, she meets Gryffin, whose mind is as strong as his legs are damaged, and the two become friends and allies.
A few years later, the two get jobs working at an inn nearby. When it is discovered that Gryffin is the kingdom’s new Dream-Maker—someone whose mere presence can help dreams come true—he is whisked away to the castle, leaving Kellen behind. By now, their friendship is shading into something more.
Will it endure?
