review 1: Want to try a little something with the kids before diving into The Hobbit? Here's an amazing 'nother worldly tale. Great creatures and people with different abilities and languages. Different cultural heritages and all are manipulated by a faceless mastermind that leads to the near obliteration of the Lace people. Hathin and Arilou are forced on a journey of survival and eventually uncover the truths of the sinister conspiracy.
review 2: Welcome to an island where two sisters must "pretend" that one of them has special powers as a prophetess - an esteemed honor, especially in their very poor, wrong side of the tracks town/ethnic group. Unfortunately, Hathin, the sister who is not the special one, must interpret Arilou's garbled words as she best sees fit
... moregiven the situation- it is a dangerous game that could lead to punishment or worse when all the other prophets suddenly and mysteriously die. Lots of secrets, mysteries, intrigues and wonderful characters. less
