Produktbeschreibung
A Saskwyan flight mechanic with uncanny luck, seventeen-year-old Robin Arianhod grew up in the shadow of a decade-long war. But the skies are stalked by the Coyote-a ruthless Klonn pilot who picks off crippled airships and retreating soldiers. And as the only person to have survived an aerial dance with Saskwya's greatest scourge, Robin has earned his attention. As a pilot, Robin is good. But the Coyote is better. When he shoots her down and takes her prisoner, Robin finds herself locked into a new kind of dance. The possibility of genuine affection from a man who should be her enemy has left her with a choice: accept the Coyote's offer of freedom and romance in exchange for repairing a strange rocket pack that could spell Saskwya's defeat, but become a traitor to her country. Or betray her own heart and escape. If she takes the rocket pack and flees, she could end the war from the inside. All she has to do is fly. Filled with intrigue, forbidden romance, and a touch of steampunk, The Skylark's Song soars in this new duology from the award-winning author of The Accidental Turn Series.
