Review

"In the course of her dark and eventful tale, Cashore plays with the idea of awkwardness, how at a certain age gifts and talents are burdens, how they make it impossible to feel comfortable in the world. And in this she writes a fairly realistic portrait of teenage life into the baroque courts of her outlandish kingdoms."

Publisher's note

Katsa has been able to kill a man with her bare hands since she was eight--she's a Graceling, one of the rare people in her land born with an extreme skill. As niece of the king, she should be able to live a life of privilege, but Graced as she is with killing, she is forced to work as the king's thug. When she first meets Prince Po, Graced with combat skills, Katsa has no hint of how her life is about to change. She never expects to become Po's friend. She never expects to learn a new truth about her own Grace--or about a terrible secret that lies hidden far away . . . a secret that could destroy all seven kingdoms with words alone,"

Annotation

Set in a world were some fortunate, or perhaps unfortunate, people are born with a special power called a grace, Katsa's is murder. Forced to assassinate the king's enemies, Kasta finds being a Graceling torturous. To make up for her repugnant actions, Kasta creates a secret society devoted to fairness and justice in a cold, cruel world. Action, romance, and a superb female heroine make GRACELING a gripping read. A Publishers Weekly Best Book of 2008.
