Plot: an apprentice with silver skin and white hair (a result of apprenticing where he did) runs away, and has eight days to leave the land before he is hung. When his days run out, he teams up with a fisherman's daughter to try and figure out the mystery behind birds with human heads.
Comments: A good fantasy-style book, but the names are a little confusing at times. The problem with a lot of fantasy books is that the names are nothing like those here on Earth, and when there are more than a couple of names in the beginning, it gets confusing. The adventure in this book goes back and forth between places, again, making it confusing (the characters go to one place, then they go to another, then they return to the first place, then...). I didn't like the ending very much; it wasn't a bad ending, but I thought of several I would have liked more.
Rating: I give this book a six and a half out of ten.
