My WoW book for this week is Pegasus
by Robin McKinley.
Pegasus
by Robin McKinley Pages: 400 pages
Publisher: Putnam Juvenile
Release Date: November 2nd, 2010
Synopsis from RobinMcKinley.com: "A gorgeously-written fantasy about the friendship between a princess and her pegasus.
Because of a thousand-year-old alliance between humans and pegasi, Princess Sylviianel is ceremonially bound to Ebon, her own pegasus, on her twelfth birthday. The two species coexist peacefully, despite the language barriers separating them. Humans and pegasi both rely on specially-trained Speaker magicians as the only means of real communication.
But it’s different for Sylvi and Ebon. They can understand each other. They quickly grow close—so close that their bond becomes a threat to the status quo—and possibly to the future safety of their two nations."
