her Circle of Magic universe to go directly to audio. There will be no
print version for at least a year! It's the story of Evvy, the young
stone mage introduced in Pierce's bestselling Street Magic, who
accompanies her guardian Rosethorn on a mission to Starns Island to
study a mysterious plant die-off. with her magic--and the help of Luvo,
one of Tamora Pierce's most original creations--the girl discovers a
threat far greater than anyone could have imagined. Preventing disaster
may cost Evvy her life. Even more frightening, from her point of view,
it may require her to melt her own hard heart, and open herself to human
contact.
