Griffins are supposed to be extinct. So when Yukiko and her warrior father Masaru are sent to capture one for the Shogun, they fear that their lives are over. Everyone knows what happens to those who fail the Shogun . . . But the mission proves far less impossible, and far more deadly, than anyone expects - and soon Yukiko finds herself stranded alone in her country's last wilderness, with only a furious, broken-winged griffin for company. Even though she saved his life, all she knows for certain is that he'd rather see her dead than help her. But trapped together, Yukiko and the griffin discover a friendship that neither of them expected. Meanwhile, the country around them is on the brink of collapse. A toxic fuel, chi, is slowly choking the land; the omnipotent, metal-clad Guild is publicly burning those that they deem Impure; and the Shogun, happily ensconced in his palace, cares about nothing but his own power. Yukiko has never been happy about any of this, but it's only when she learns the truth of what the Shogun has done, both to her country and to her own family that she decides something needs to change. Enlisting the aid of a rebellious Guildsman and the Kage themselves, Yukiko and the griffin return to civilization in the hopes of saving her country - and herself.

Seller's Description:
New York. 2013. Thomas Dunne Books/St. Martin's. Reprinted Paperback Edition. Very Good in Wrappers. 9781250031280. 324 pages. paperback. keywords: Young Adult. FROM THE PUBLISHER-Stormdancer is the first in the epic new fantasy series The Lotus War, introducing an unforgettable heroine and a stunningly original dystopian steampunk world with a flavor of feudal Japan. The Shima Imperium verges on the brink of environmental collapse; an island nation once rich in tradition and myth, now decimated by clockwork industrialization and the machine-worshipers of the Lotus Guild. When hunters of Shima's imperial court are charged by their Sh? gun to capture a legendary griffin, they fear their lives are over. Any fool knows the beasts have been extinct for more than a century, and the price of failing the Sh? gun is death. Accompanying her father on the Sh? gun's hunt, the girl Yukiko finds herself stranded: a young woman alone in Shima's last wilderness, with only a furious, crippled griffin for company. Even though she can hear his thoughts, even though she saved his life, all she knows for certain is he'd rather see her dead than help her. But together, the pair will form an indomitable friendship, and rise to challenge the might of an empire. inventory #47094.
