After a summer of betrayal and heartbreak and an epically rotten year, 16 year-old Jocelyn (The Flying) Burgowski is fleeing family and friends on Dalby Island for school on the mainland. What good is flying if it wrecks relationships? The guy she fell for almost destroyed her power. Now, discovering the ugly underbelly of mainland life, has Joss stumbled upon a fellow Flyer-only to bring her down? Confronting the dual forces of magic and maturity, Joss must face the question: what does "to thine own self be true" really mean?

Autorenporträt
Like Jocelyn Burgowski, Gretchen Wing occasionally needs to go for a good fly to put life's difficulties into perspective. Unlike Jocelyn, she can't actually fly. But biking, walking, and going for runs in the beautiful San Juan Islands helps. (As does scribbling longhand; singing; curling up with a good book, or baking kick-ass pie.)
