Description
"Among the scattered islands of the ocean-bound world called Windhaven, no one holds more prestige than the silver-winged flyershumans borne on handcrafted wings who cross treacherous seas, braving shifting winds and sudden storms, to bring news, gossip, songs, and stories to Windhavens far-flung communities. Maris of Lesser Amberly is only a fishermans daughter, but as much a descendant of the star sailors who founded her world as the flyer family who adopted her. She yearns to soar high above the water on the skys buffeting currents. But it is Mariss stepbrother who stands to inherit the irreplaceable wings when he comes of agethough he dreams of pursuing a very different path. So Maris dares to challenge tradition and the law by demanding that flyers be chosen by merit rather than inheritance. Determined to establish flying competitions and training academies for those not of the flyer-born classes, she wages a bitter battle for change. But even as she triumphs, a host of new troubles confronts her. For a brewing revolution now threatens to destroy the world she fought so hard to join, and crush her proud, rebellious spiritunless she is willing to make the ultimate sacrifice." -- Book flap.
