The Smoke Thieves
Synopsis
A princess, a traitor, a hunter and a thief: four teenagers with the fate of the world in their hands, and four nations destined for conflict.
In Brigant, Princess Catherine prepares for a loveless political marriage arranged by her brutal, ambitious father. In Calidor, downtrodden servant March seeks revenge on the prince who betrayed his people. In Pitoria, feckless Edyon steals cheap baubles for cheaper thrills as he drifts from town to town. And in the barren northern territories, thirteen-year-old Tash runs for her life as bait for the gruff demon hunter Gravell.
As alliances shift and shatter and old certainties are overturned, the four find their pasts transformed and their futures bound together by the unpredictable tides of magic and war. The first book in Sally Green's trilogy ends on a cliffhanger.
