Oona is the least proficient of all the sand dancers. Her aniforms are always getting away from her. While chasing one she overhears a council meeting and discovers that her world is in great danger. The "Chosen One" needs to relight the five beacons before they all parish. Oona believes her long lost sister is the chosen one, and with the help of some unlikely friends, she goes on a desperate quest to find her and bring her back to Crystalia.This is a beautifully illustrated graphic novel fantasy. It got some starred reviews and will be popular with the "Amulet" crowd. There is nothing terribly original in the plot line, but somehow we never get tired of the stories of the underdog who discovers hidden potential and uses it to save the world.
