Лоуренс Марк: The Girl and the Stars

The First Book of the Ice

East of the Black Rock, out on the ice, lies a hole down which broken children are thrown.

On the vastness of the ice there is no room for individuals. No one survives alone. To endure months of night when the air freezes requires a special breed. Variation is dangerous: difference is fatal.

And Yaz is different.

Torn from her family and the boy she thought she would spend her life with, Yaz must carve a path for herself in a strange new world full of danger.

Beneath the ice, Yaz will learn shocking truths. And when she begins to challenge the cruel arithmetic of survival that has always governed her people, she will learn that her weaknesses are another kind of strength.

An epic new series from the bestselling author of Prince of Thorns and Red Sister.
