A Constellation of Shadows - Paperback

by Kay Rowan (Author)

'We live for peace'...her father made it sound so simple.

As the daughter of one of The Talliswood's Ambassadors, it's Aerva's job to hold everything together. Eredhest's war on her people may have ended, but there is always a cost to staying alive, and tensions are starting to grow again. Now, as part of a last-ditch peace deal, she has been shipped off to Udela Arkanium, one of Eredhest's finest schools, right in the heart of enemy territory. All she has to do is get to the end of the school year alive, and without making too many enemies, and her people might stand a chance of surviving.

But when a mysterious assassin breaks into the temple on a mission to kill a teacher, Aerva's life is suddenly turned on its head. With the help of a troubled poet, a healer from the wrong side of the mountains, and a killer who cannot kill, Aerva sets out to unravel a plot that could threaten the whole world...

...and maybe, just maybe, she'll be able to save herself in the process.

'A Constellation of Shadows' is the debut, YA fantasy novel by Kay Rowan, and Book One of The Talliswood series.
