LEGUIN, URSULA K.<br />

Skylight Books – Hotlist Fall 2012<br />

In this fourth novel in the Earthsea series, we rejoin the young priestess the Tenar and powerful wizard Ged.<br />

Years before, they had helped each other at a time of darkness and danger. Together, they shared an adventure<br />

like no other. Tenar has since embraced the simple pleasures of an ordinary life, while Ged mourns the powers<br />

lost to him through no choice of his own. Now the two must join forces again and help another in need—the<br />

physically, emotionally scarred child whose own destiny has yet to be revealed…. With millions of copies sold<br />

worldwide, Ursula K. Le Guin’s Earthsea Cycle has earned a treasured place on the shelves of fantasy lovers<br />

everywhere, alongside the works of such beloved authors as J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis. Now the full<br />

Earthsea collection—A Wizard of Earthsea, The Tombs of Atuan, The Farthest Shore, Tehanu, Tales from<br />

Earthsea, and The Other Wind—is available with a fresh, modern look that will endear it both to loyal fans and<br />

THRONE OF GLASS<br />

MAAS, SARAH<br />

After serving out a year of hard labor in the salt mines of Endovier for her crimes, 18-year-old assassin Celaena<br />

Sardothien is dragged before the Crown Prince. Prince Dorian offers her her freedom on one condition: she must<br />

act as his champion in a competition to find a new royal assassin. Her opponents are men—thieves and<br />

assassins and warriors from across the empire, each sponsored by a member of the king's council. If she beats<br />

her opponents in a series of eliminations, she'll serve the kingdom for three years and then be granted her<br />

freedom. Celaena finds her training sessions with the captain of the guard, Westfall, challenging and exhilirating.<br />

But she's bored stiff by court life. Things get a little more interesting when the prince starts to show interest in<br />

her... but it's the gruff Captain Westfall who seems to understand her best. Then one of the other contestants<br />

turns up dead... quickly followed by another. Can Celaena figure out who the killer is before she becomes a<br />

victim? As the young assassin investigates, her search leads her to discover a greater destiny than she could<br />

possibly have imagined.<br />
