What is so special about Grydin? Why would a mysterious woman risk her life, and that of her unborn child, just to reach a village hidden amongst snowlocked mountains?
Born in the depths of winter, a child called Faye is orphaned in this place steeped in magical mystery. Hated by the village, the half-Fey child is ridiculed and mistreated, forced to endure a childhood of isolation and loneliness.
Yet, full of courage and determination, Faye pursues her dreams and enters the coveted Austin Academy to become a Seeker. In this prestigious school of academics, sorcery and healing, Faye must navigate the murky terrain of friendship and foe to achieve her goals.
If she fails, or is caught making mischief, she faces expulsion. No family and no influence means that Faye must rely on her talents and tenacity.
Can she pass her first year? Will her foster-family accept her back, come summer? Can her best-friend Zen keep its mouth shut long enough for Faye to graduate?
Find out in the first instalment of The Pendalin Chronicles: A Child Called Faye.
Perfect for lovers of Emily Rodda's fantasy worlds and the strong heroine's of Tamora Pierce, A Child Called Faye blends the magic and friendships found at schools like Hogwarts with the strong heroine's coming-of-age found in Jessica Townsend's Morrigan Crow novels. Readers who are young - and young at heart - will enjoy Jess Senff's stories.
