Princess Academy: Palace of Stone
Book 2 of the Princess Academy series
Miri leaves Mount Eskel for the bustling capital of Asland, where she and the other academy girls are reunited with Princess Britta as preparations begin for the royal wedding. But the glamour of palace life gives way to political unrest as Miri befriends people demanding relief from poverty and greater power for ordinary citizens, leaving her caught between the royal family she loves and a growing revolutionary movement. As tensions rise, she must decide where her loyalties lie and whether her education can help her find a path that protects both her friends and her country. Thoughtful, adventurous, and politically charged, this middle-grade fantasy suits readers who enjoy friendship, coming-of-age stories, royal courts, revolution, social justice, divided loyalties, courageous heroines, and fish-out-of-water adventures in grand city and palace settings.
