The story is masterfully plotted. The characters' dilemmas fascinated me and tore at my heart I loved it. I want more Kristin Cashore, author of the Graceling Realm books War has begun. Arin is in the thick of it with untrustworthy new allies and the empire as his enemy.

In the frozen north, Kestrel is a prisoner in a brutal work camp. As she searches desperately for a way to escape, she wishes Arin could know what she sacrificed for him.
