(2) YA Unlike the other fourteen-year-old boys in Yoss's tranquil medieval village, who achieve manhood with one brief, ritual sojourn into the surrounding mountains, Yoss leaves home and ventures forth into the world. During his harrowing, picaresque journey, he encounters villainy at every turn. Although the story moves at a slow pace, Hirsch provides plenty of action.
