Book Overview
The newest novel from the World Fantasy Award-winning author of "The Bell at Sealey Head." With "her exquisite grasp of the fantasist's craft"* ("Publishers Weekly") Patricia A. McKillip now invites readers to discover a place that may only exist in the mystical wisdom of poetry and music. Scholar Phelan Cle is researching Bone Plain-which has been studied for the last 500 years, though no one has been able to locate it as a real place. Archaeologist Jonah Cle, Phelan's father, is also hunting through time, piecing history together from forgotten trinkets. His most eager disciple is Princess Beatrice, the king's youngest daughter. When they unearth a disk marked with ancient runes, Beatrice pursues the secrets of a lost language that she suddenly notices all around her, hidden in plain sight.

One of my very favorites
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 8 years ago
Written in the beautiful style that is all her own, Mckillip offers laughter, mystery, suspense and a little bit of romance. The characters are fun and relate-able, and the ending is satisfying. I will be reading this one again!
