Melina Marchetta is best known for her contemporary Australian classics, but Finnikin of the Rock shows she is just as skilled at building an entirely new world. Years after his kingdom was cursed and its people scattered, Finnikin joins forces with a mysterious young novice whose dreams may hold the key to bringing the exiles home. Richly plotted and emotionally grounded, it is a strong pick for teen readers who want fantasy with real political and personal weight behind it.
