About the books:
For
over a thousand years, the Tanoa have relied on their line of Earth
Shamen to bring rich harvests, temper stone tools and weapons, and imbue
pottery with strength like metal. Now, though, the bloodline has
dwindled to one Shaman, Tuwa, who is trapped high in the mountains,
holding bedrock together to prevent a volcanic eruption while the rest
of her people flee to safety. The only way to save the village is for
her to sacrifice herself and buy them the time they need to evacuate.
But
her grandson, Ahote, refuses to abandon her to die. Rather than do as
she asks—marry and bear daughters who might inherit her gift—he sets out
to find the one person who might be able to save Tuwa’s life.
Kasha
is a Tanoa girl in who lives in Solace, a city of the pale-skinned
Andalanos. If the Engineers Guild ever discovers her gender or race,
they could order her execution—for in violation of the King’s law,
Master Engineer Seamus trained Kasha as his apprentice. She is a genius
in all things mechanical and earned her master certification when only
fourteen years old. Since Seamus’s death, she has been discreetly
working his job as the City Engineer.
No
engineer in history could save Tuwa; it requires an invention unlike
anything the world has ever seen. Kasha believes she can do it, but when
Ahote breaks the Andalanos’ most sacred law, she is caught between
worlds. Kasha must choose between her Tanoa heritage and her Andalano
friends who have risked their lives to give her the only career she has
ever wanted. Choosing one means betraying the other, and in this world,
betrayal means death.
