Dark Heart What if initiation into womanhood means you must face a snarling bear? What if you fail? Sixteen-year-old Kat has fled the tyrannical rule of her father and now lives among her mother's people -- a society that is joyful and caring, but conformist and bound by superstition. She has spent one year dutifully preparing for her initiation rite. She is frightened and uncertain, yet only by completing the ritual can she be accepted into the circle of women. And what will she do about the young blind man she is drawn to -- so handsome and artistic, and so angry? And what of gentle Nall, the man she left behind? "Finely drawn." - School Library Journal
