Above the Veil by Garth Nix

4.0

Tal and Milla have gone their separate ways. Milla to report and give herself to the ice, and Tal to the top of the Red tower to figure out how to save his father.

Tal has to rely upon a former slave/underfolk called Crow who is bitter, angry, and willing to do anything to free his people and hurt the Chosen. Tal has come to the realization that everything he has thought was true is no longer the case.

Milla assumes that she knows what the crones will decide once she reports to them. Will they allow her to end her life, or will she suffer a worse fate.
