Hild is the king's youngest niece, with a glittering mind and a natural authority. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eShe is destined to become one of the pivotal figures of the Early Middle Ages: Saint Hilda of Whitby. But for now she has only the powerful curiosity of a bright child and the precarious advantage of a plotting uncle, Edwin of Northumbria, who will stop at nothing to become overking of Angles. Hild establishes a place for herself at his side as the king's seer, and she is indispensable--as long as she doesn't lead Edwin astray. The stakes are high--life and death--for Hild, for her family, and, increasingly, for those who seek the protection from this strange girl who seems to see the future. Drawing from the few records history has left us, Nicola Griffith has brought the young Saint Hilda's harsh, but beautiful, world to vivid, absorbing life.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Picador USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/28\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250056092\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 546\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.95lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 1.10d","brand":"Nicola Griffith","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36648534769820,"sku":"9781250056092","price":18.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_c565ab26-a1ac-453f-ae11-70c1844af8dd.jpg?v=1603870319","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/hild-9781250056092","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
