A land destroyed by war. An army of giants on the rampage. Can a crippled 16-year-old girl heal the world before it dies?
All Khaidu wants is her own hunting eagle, but her world has no place for a girl hunter, much less a crippled one. But Khaidu has a secret: mastering the ancient magic of eagle-binding, she captures the largest eagle her tribe has ever seen, only to discover that the eagle is a dying queen under an enchantment.
Khaidu's binding unlocks an ancient curse, and the bond between eagle and hunter shatters. Desperate to find her eagle, Khaidu braves monstrous beasts and an army of shape-shifting giants.
But the cost of her quest is greater than she imagines. If Khaidu cannot save the queen in time, the world itself will be lost forever.
Inspired by the Russian fairy tale "Finist the Bright Falcon," The Heart of the World is a sweeping tale perfect for lovers of classic fantasy and creative twists on myths and legends.
