O ovoj e-knjizi
Discover a new dark age—and the one girl wielding the light of truth—in a tale "with threads from The Hunger Games, The Giver, and other dystopian novels" ( Booklist).
For more than a hundred years, no maiden from Aerie has competed in the arduous Testing, but after Eva's twin brother dies, she is determined to fulfill his dream of participating in the all-male competition, and enters despite her parents' wishes.
With the help of Lukas, her family's servant from the Boundary lands, Eva learns the ways of the outcasts who live in the brutal and icy world beyond Aerie. She discovers the secrets of the blinding white landscape, the dogs who pull her sled, and the chasms that house the strange relics once worshipped by a godless humanity. This knowledge is exactly what she needs to survive—and win—the harsh trials of the Testing.
Leaving the safety of Aerie behind gives Eva a chance to realize how strong she can be in the face of adversity—and how brave she'll have to become in a society built on the shifting snows of lies . . .
"Heather Terrell excavates a richly realized and adventurous world from the iced-over wreck of our own." —William Alexander, National Book Award–winning author of Goblin Secrets
"Part post-apocalyptic fiction and part high fantasy . . . Delicately weaving in elements of Inuit culture as well as elements you might find in Game of Thrones, Heather Terrell creates a world that is as intricate as it is icy . . . A page-turner." —E. Kristen Anderson, editor of Dear Teen Me
