Fantasy and Science Fiction for Children and Teens
Description:SEVEN O'CLOCK on a Monday morning, five hundred years after the end
of the world, and goblins had been at the cellar again....Not that anyone
would admit it was goblins. In Maddy Smith's world, order rules. Chaos, old
gods, faeries, goblins, magic, glamours—all of these were supposedly
vanquished centuries ago. But Maddy knows that a small bit of magic has
survived. The "ruinmark" she was born with on her palm proves it—and
makes the other villagers fearful that she is a witch (though helpful in
dealing with the goblins-in-the-cellar problem). But the mysterious traveler
One-Eye sees Maddy's mark not as a defect, but as a destiny. And Maddy
will need every scrap of forbidden magic One-Eye can teach her if she is to
survive that destiny.
