GracelingGraceling book cover
by Kristin Cashore

Lady Katsa is a Graceling, one of the few people with a special, magical talent, but Katsa’s Grace is for killing and her uncle, a corrupt king, isn’t above using her talents for his own purposes. Katsa tries to balance the evil she commits in his name with good acts, even forming a secret council to help her decide where her talents are most needed. On one of these missions, she meets Prince Po, who has a powerful Grace of his own. Po is determined to learn Katsa’s secrets and hopes that together they may be able to check the rising corruption in the seven kingdoms and find its hidden source.
