Description: When a beautiful princess refuses to marry the prince her father has chosen, her father is furious. So furious he locks her in a tower. She has seven long years of solitude to think about her insolence. But the princess is not entirely alone - she can take her maid, Dashti. Petulant and spoilt, the princess eats the food in their meagre store as if she were still at court, and Dashti soon realises they must either escape or slowly starve. But Dashti also discovers that there is something far more sinister behind her princess' fears of marrying of the prince, and when, finally, they do break free from the tower, they find a land laid to waste and the kingdom destroyed. Storytelling at its best. - Dashti is a feisty and thoroughly modern heroine in a wonderfully classic story. 'I really enjoyed this book. Dashti's distinctive voice and often beautiful phrases drew me into the story and wouldn't let me leave until I had finished. 10/10.' - Isabella, 17
