Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
In the third exhilarating novel in this dazzling epic fantasy series, a young outcast will fight against staggering odds to save her world.
On the planet Abeth, a narrow Corridor of green land is surrounded on all sides by ice plains where only the strong survive. Ice triber Yaz has completed a perilous journey and arrived at the Corridor, and it exceeds and overwhelms all of her expectations. Everything seems different but some constants remain: her old enemies are still two steps ahead, bent on her destruction. She makes her way to the Convent of Sweet Mercy, where nuns train young girls who show the old gifts, but like the Corridor itself the convent is packed with peril and opportunity. Yaz has much to learn from the nuns--if they don't decide to execute her.
The fate of everyone squeezed between the Corridor's vast walls, and ultimately the fate of those laboring to survive out on ice itself, hangs from the moon, and the battle to save the moon centers on the Ark of the Missing, buried beneath the emperor's palace. Everyone wants Yaz to be the key that will open the Ark - the one the wise have sought for generations. But sometimes wanting isn't enough.
"The third pulse-pounding novel in an epic fantasy series set in the same world as the wildly popular Red Sister, following an outcast who will fight with everything she has to survive. On the harsh planet of Abeth, covered with ice except along a narrow corridor, Yaz has had to fight hard to survive, and she's made friends-and enemies-along the way. The Convent of Sweet Mercy, like the Corridor itself, is packed with peril and opportunity. Yaz needs the nuns' help-but first they want to execute her. The fate of everyone squeezed between the Corridor's vast walls, and ultimately of those laboring to survive out on ice itself, hangs from the moon. And the battle to save the moon centers on the Ark of the Missing, buried beneath the emperor's palace. Everyone wants Yaz to be the key that will open the Ark-the one the wise have sought for generations. But sometimes wanting isn't enough"-- Provided by publisher.
