Apie šią el. knygą
Enter the world of Crewel: a world of secrets and intrigue. Where a girl with talent will thrive...or be destroyed.
Incapable. Awkward. Artless.
That's what the other girls whisper behind her back. But sixteen-year-old Adelice Lewys has a secret - she wants to fail.
Gifted with the ability to weave time and matter, Adelice is exactly what the Guild is looking for, and in the world of Arras, being chosen as a Spinster is everything a girl could want. It means privilege, power and beauty, the ability to embroider the very fabric of life. It also means entering a world secrets and lethal intrigue. But unlike the others, Adelice isn't interested in controlling what people eat, where they live and how many children they have and will do anything to hide her talent from the Guild. But when she slips up during her final test, her gift is identified. Now she has one hour to eat her mum's overcooked dinner. One hour to listen to her sister's school gossip and laugh at her dad's stupid jokes. One hour to pretend everything is OK. And one hour to escape. Because once you become a Spinster, there's no turning back...
