Stacey Jay's newest book Of Beast and Beauty tells the story of the doomed city of Yuan and the blind Princess Isra. Isra is raised merely to sacrifice herself someday to ensure her people's vitality. In the desert outside, the mutant boy Gem fights to keep his people from starvation. Neither dreams that together they could return balance to their world. Isra, a Smooth Skin, bound by magical covenant to the city of Yuan, wants to help the banished people of her city, second-class citizens despised for possessing monstrous traits the blind princess believes she also possesses.
