(2) YA Heriot Tarbas reads thoughts for the King of Hoad. To discover his power's real purpose, Heriot must bring together his divided self, as farm boy and magician. Mahy majestically deploys poetic language to portray the changes and challenges of adolescence. Here, an epic quest for identity is wrapped up in terror, romance, and suspense, sustained by luminous imagery and intelligent, musical prose.
