Rye lives in a walled city called Weld, on the island of Dorne, with his mother and two older brothers. He and his family know very little of what is outside the Wall, only that it is a dangerous world from which they are wise to shelter. However, for several years their city has been besieged in summer by skimmers: savage, bat-like creatures that fly in hordes over the Wall from somewhere outside Weld, looking for human and animal prey. The Warden of Weld offers a large reward to any young man who can find and defeat the Enemy sending the skimmers. Rye’s adventurous eldest brother Dirk is among the first to volunteer. And when he does not return, Rye’s second brother, solitary, studious Sholto, leaves in search of the source of the skimmer menace.

At the Wise Woman Sheba’s command, Rowan must set out on a final quest to save his land—the most dangerous journey yet. It is winter in Rin, but no one remembers a winter like it. It has lasted far too long. Some say the Mountain has cursed Rin, while others believe the extended winter may be a natural part of the land’s cycles. Having settled in Rin as escaped slaves three centuries ago, the people of Rin have no record of what happened before they arrived. One thing is certain, the villagers must leave for the coast at once, or they will die from lack of food. But Rowan has decided to stay with the bukshah herd, and save as many as he can, for without the wool, milk and labour the bukshah provide, there will be nothing for the villagers to come back to when the winter finally ends.

Then the strange housekeeper from a mysterious cli�op mansion sees his talent and buys him for a handful of gold and then reveals to him seven extraordinary pain�ngs.

    List of Books Used for Teaching the Accelerated Literacy Teaching Sequence in the National Accelerated Literacy Program

    List of books used for teaching the Accelerated Literacy teaching sequence in the National Accelerated Literacy Program The purpose of this booklist is to provide suggestions of books recommended for use in teaching the Accelerated Literacy approach. The books listed are not the only books used to teach the Accelerated Literacy approach and are by no means exclusive of other books teachers may know and enjoy. Book Teaching Notes Transition, YEAR 1 The books listed for Reception (Kindergarten, Transition, Pre Primary) and Year 1 are not all meant to be read independently by children during their first year at school. Books that can be shared by classes in their first year of school will usually have short segments that repeat often in stories. These short segments of the story can be used for Accelerated Literacy teaching sequences. Later in the same year or in the next year these familiar stories can be revisited and children will be able to read larger sections of them. The book list for these classes has therefore been divided into two sections - picture books that have repeating patterns that can be used with very early readers, and picture books with simple text that children can read themselves.
