Princess Addie's sister Meryl has always dreamed of finding a cure to the Gray death, a disease that has been plaguing the Bamarrians since the legendary hero Drault left Bamarre. But when Meryl catches the Gray Death it is up to shy Addie to find a cure. Along the way Addie must find enough courage to face many magical creatures, including scepters, dragons, and a magical spirit that seems to push her along in her quest to save Meryl. I really like how Levine puts a verse from the book of poems about Drault's heroic deeds in front of each chapter. It makes the story seem alive and spreading.
