Written by Shannon Hale. First edition, 2012. Bloomsbury Publishing.
In Princess Academy: Palace of Stone, Shannon Hale, the acclaimed author of the Books of Bayern series, creates a fairy-tale kingdom on the verge of upheaval and a young girl on the verge of womanhood.
Front flap:
"When Miri and a few of the girls from Mount Eskel's princess academy travel to the capital to help the princess-to-be get ready for her wedding, they have no idea what to expect. ...Miri is mostly just happy to see her best friend.
"But not everything in Asland is as perfect as the mountain girls hoped. As Miri learns more about her new home, she finds herself deep in the middle of an upheaval that affects everyone she loves. Torn between her loyalty to the princess and her belief in her friends' daring ideas, and between an old love and a new crush, Miri must test the strengths and skills she gained in the princess academy."
