Sand Dancer
A fiery YA Fantasy series for fans of
Tamora Pierce and An Ember in the Ashes.
A fantasy tale of fire magic, sword dancing, secrets, and revenge!
Only monsters summon fire by magic. It’s a sin against the sun god and a crime against the king. The punishment is death.
But when sixteen-year-old Mina discovers fire magic runs in her family’s blood, it’s just the beginning of the secrets her father has been keeping from her.
When her father is murdered, this half-starved peasant girl finds herself on the run—pursued across the desert by the soldiers and guards of the noble Houses. To survive, she knows she’ll have to abandon her past and learn the way of the sword. But only boys are allowed to carry a blade. There’s only one solution…
Disguised as a young nobleman, Mina must make a new life for herself in the heart of her enemies. But she knows she can’t keep up the masquerade forever. With time running out, which will she choose to find—the truth or revenge?
SAND DANCER is the first in an exciting series of Young Adult fantasy novels by Trudie Skies - a tale of fire magic, sword dancing, secrets, and revenge! The sequel, FIRE WALKER, will be launching on 23rd February 2021!
