There's no faster way to get a promotion than by having your superiors turn to stone. Yesterday, I was a novice. I wore a grey cloak that brushed my calves and made the Little Folk in the forest laugh at me as I passed them by. Then one by one by one, my fellow sisters started to look a little grey in the face and clouded in the eyes. Their joints began to stiffen. Their musical voices cracked. They started coughing up dust. Now, I'm my monastery's last hope to complete a ritual that might save us all... If I can keep Tablet's anxiety from causing them to combust, avoid being devoured by demons that will stop at nothing to steal the sacred idol I carry... And keep from turning to stone before I can use it.

Now, other Keepers are missing. And not just Keepers. People have been disappearing from camps and settlements scattered across the outback. Why didn't we know about it? The Library is supposed to know everything. That's its whole purpose, to save and share knowledge. Isn't it? I have to warn New Pearth. After all, this is what I was trained for.

Contains medium violence, mild language and drug references. Suitable for ages 13 and older.
