Malva is the princess of Galnicia,destined to marry the Prince of Andemark. Or so her parents think. On the eve of her wedding,she escapes at dead of night from under her parents'noses,little realising that she is letting herself in for a life of peril and adventure,including being shipwrecked in a huge storm and captured as part of a harem. Hugely visual,the book tells of the wonder of frozen steppes and oriental palaces,of sailing ships and treasure islands. This is a book of drama,magic and excitement,where challenges have to be overcome,friendships cemented and hearts broken.
