In the "Newbery Honor-winning author's compelling fantasy" for young adults, a boy is chosen to rule his idyllic land -- only to discover its dark secrets (Publishers Weekly).
Green-sky is an ideal place. Violence doesn't exist. Its citizens, the Kindar, glide from tree to tree and exchange happy thoughts. This is all thanks to their rulers, the Ol-zhaan. And on his thirteenth birthday, Raamo D'ok is chosen to become one of the Ol-zhaan. Raamo is surprised to be named a Chosen. He isn't a very good student -- but the Ol-zhaan believe he has strong Spirit-force. But during his training, Raamo discovers that these good rulers aren't as benevolent as they appear. They harbor secrets about his people, his family, and what lies below the forest floor. Now Raamo must decide: Should he keep the peace, or reveal the secrets that the Ol-zhaan have protected for so long? This ebook features an extended biography of Zilpha Keatley Snyder.
