Packed with shocking twists, frightening monsters, and dark magic, this is a page-turning fantasy adventure for middle-grade fans of Holly Black and Tamora Pierce. Twelve-year-old Octavia grew up believing the town of Vittoria was the only one left in the world. The sole survivors of a deadly magical war and plague, the people of Vittoria know there' s no one alive outside the town walls-except the terrible monsters that prowl the forest. But then the impossible happens- Octavia meets another girl beyond the walls, someone who isn' t Vittorian. Everything she' s ever believed is thrown into question, and there' s no going back. In her quest for the truth, Octavia discovers a world full of lies, monsters, and magic. She' ll have to use every scrap of her skill, wits, and courage to uncover what' s real about Vittoria and the rest of the world.
"Reminiscent in feel to Kelly Barnhill' s The Girl Who Drank the Moon, this lovely fantasy introduces a complicated, brave, and believable heroine navigating grief, friendship, and the possible first stirrings of a (same-sex) crush while asking hard questions about power and community. This quiet fantasy gem renews and refreshes an old chestnut of a premise. An absolute delight. "-Kirkus Reviews, starred review "I absolutely loved this book. Octavia is a heroine for the ages. "-Ronald L. Smith, award-winning author of Hoodoo and Black Panther: The Young Prince
