A Treespeaker is one with his forest, moving with its spirit, inseparably bound to it. Terrifying visions warn Jakan that a visitor to his tribe is not who he claims to be. As the villagers fall under the spell of the stranger's mind-bending sorcery, Jakan grows desperate to be rid of him. Events take a sinister turn when he accuses the stranger of sacrilege - and it is Jakan, not the outsider, who is expelled from the forest. Join Jakan on his perilous journey across a blighted land as he searches for the secret that will save his people - and himself. "Treespeaker is an intricately woven book that reads like an old oral history. It flows beautifully; with the story so deeply rooted in nature, the writing seemed to take on a life of its own and bloom in its own right." Sift Book Reviews
