A new series by the author of the Sword of Lyric series.
I'm just in awe over the amount of worldbuilding that went into creating this world where dancers and dance have the power to move the world and heal, change the weather and cause plants to grow.
The Order is in the center of what turns out to be a massive floating island, moved by the currents of a world of sweet water. The problem is that the Order uses its dancers and the power of dance to essentially keep the world anchored in one place.
This is against the Maker's plans and intentions ... but the Order says the Maker is just a fable.
Enter our heroine, a novitiate of the Order, who is on the verge of graduating to become a dancer and serve in the never-ending task of guiding and protecting the world. If she doesn't become a dancer, she will be hobbled forever, forbidden to dance -- and for her, dance is everything.
The first time she sets foot on the dancing grounds and begins the task she has prepared for her whole life, she hears a voice ... and soon everything she believes in disintegrates. She must flee for her life and her sanity, and her only ally is the last person in the world she wants to trust.
Lovely and heart-racing and aching. And there were times I just wanted to throttle ... *sigh*
Hey, Sharon, write faster? I need to find out what happens next!
