INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Lloyd, Natalie

Over the Moon

(2) 4-6 Mallie works as a maid to pay off her family's debt to the Guardians so they won't take her younger brother into the mines. When the Guardians start recruiting for a well-paid special mission involving flying horses, Mallie signs up. Lloyd presents a bleak portrait of a fantasy-world mining community facing similar challenges to the ones in our own real world, but Mallie's engaging story is essentially one of daring journeys and heroic adventure.
