Book description
Vis in magia, in vita vi. In magic there is power, and in
power, life.
For fifteen years, Lark Ainsley waited for the day when her Resource
would be harvested and she would finally be an adult. After the
harvest she expected a small role in the regular, orderly operation of
the City within the Wall. She expected to do her part to maintain the
refuge for the last survivors of the Wars. She expected to be a tiny
cog in the larger clockwork of the city.
Lark did not expect to become the City's power supply.
Her only choice is to escape; follow the birds into the wilderness beyond.
Into the Iron Wood
Perfect for fans of The Hunger Games, Skylark is an
electrifying tale of magic, secrecy and survival.
Intense and absorbing, Skylark transported me to a world of magic and
danger unlike anything I've read before. Dark, original and beautiful.
