Welcome to a world of wind and bone, songs and silence, betrayal and
courage.
Kirit Densira cannot wait to pass her wingtest and begin flying as a
trader by her mother's side, being in service to her beloved home tower
and exploring the skies beyond. When Kirit inadvertently breaks Tower
Law, the city's secretive governing body, the Singers, demand that she
become one of them instead. In an attempt to save her family from
greater censure, Kirit must give up her dreams to throw herself into the
dangerous training at the Spire, the tallest, most forbidding tower,
deep at the heart of the City.
As she grows in knowledge and power, she starts to uncover the depths of
Spire secrets. Kirit begins to doubt her world and its unassailable
Laws, setting in motion a chain of events that will lead to a haunting
choice and may well change the city forever--if it isn't destroyed
outright.
