Part of The Seven Coins universe, Silke's Story brings to light many mysteries. Unanswered questions about the broader conflict are peeled back as the underlying truths are revealed.
A complete story unto itself, this is a great place to start reading the series. The story begins with Silke's recollection of her quiet upbringing. Quiet and coddled. But not tame. She longs for adventure, but is repelled by the stories of her future-the prophecies others have spoken in whispers. Trapped beyond the ever-present winds of the Spire, Silke must find a way to venture into Tal Saratta. A once peaceful place, her planet is now plagued with an evil that is actively infesting the broader Cosmos. Children and lives are being stolen. It wasn't always this way though. And it doesn't have to be. The Seven Coins is an interconnected series; each story complete on its own, but weaving a patch that is part of the broader tapestry. Recommended for ages 13+. Please be advised this young adult novel is suited for mature teens and adults. This book contains VERY mild swearing and some scenes with moderate violence, including death.
