Graceling is the wonderful new book by Kristin Cashore about a girl with grace, but who is no Audrey Hepburn. Katsa’s extreme special skill, her “grace,” is that she’s able to kill people with her bare hands (ouch). In a world of seven kingdoms, Katsa is certainly considered a bad-ass and is respectably feared. Ultimately though, the graceling ends up being shamelessly used by her own family to fight and torture their enemies… until she meets Po.
There’s been a ton of early praise about this debut novel—so much so that I think it’s safe to say there’s an official buzz.
Read the reviews. Read the book. Visit Kristin Cashore’s very cool blog.
