The coming of the Great Stone to Earth has erased almost everything that used to be. But in one isolated valley, the Church of Selene has found its way back from destruction. Sister Luka and her female converts offer sacrifices to the scarred (and very close) moon that hangs over their convent. It has been this way since the meteor hit. Among the Little Sisters of Selene is twelve year-old Aurora, respected Scribe of the church. She endlessly writes down the name of the moon to keep her in the sky where she belongs. But Rory has a secret book she keeps hidden in her Scribe's chamber and into this diary she pours out her hopes and desires. Upsetting this fragile equilibrium is Willa, a young tomboy whose flamboyant arrival threatens the hard-won status quo of the sisters' community. As Rory and Willa inch toward friendship, insurrection grows. But when an unexpected marvel occurs in the sky, it is clear that Rory's work as the Scribe has failed. The moon is threatening to remake the world all over again...This is \"The Secret Book of Sacred Things\", this is Rory's story.It is suitable for fans of \"The Book of Human Skin\" by Michelle Lovric, \"A Handmaid's Tale and The Year of the Flood\" by Margaret Atwood, China Mieville, Doris Lessing's \"Mara and Dann\" novels and \"Night Road\" by Kristin Hannah.","brand":"Torsten Krol","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45922440741182,"sku":"9780857895844","price":0.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":false}],"url":"https:\/\/exclusivebooks.co.za\/products\/9780857895844","provider":"Exclusive Books Online","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
