Sisters Scarlett and Donatella "Tella" Dragna have grown up under the strict control of their father on the Conquered Isle of Trisda. Now, as Scarlett is about to enter an arranged marriage, she receives a personal invitation from Master Legend to participate in Caraval, a mysterious traveling game. A few double-crosses later, Scarlett finds herself playing not only to win but to save her sister's life. She's escorted by swoon-worthy Julian, but she isn’t sure whether or not he can be trusted. Though Caraval is supposed to be only a game, its magical illusions are cruel enough to make Scarlett question everything she thought she knew. Stephanie Garber's debut novel is a romantic fantasy that overflows with gorgeous, colorful imagery. The plot and its nonstop twists and turns are anchored by Scarlett's unbreakable bond with Tella. Pick up Caraval immediately to discover for yourself ... is it only a game? Pennsylvania Young Reader’s Choice Award 2018-2019 |
