YA
Seventeen-year-old Olus, god of the winds, falls in love with Kezi, whose father pledged her life in forfeit to the god Admat. Admat gives no sign of his existence, leaving the lovers to wonder if the sacrifice is truly necessary. Levine leaves it to readers to decide if Admat is a fake or merely hidden--a quandary sure to provoke discussions about faith.
