Daja's Book (Circle of Magic)

BOOK THREE IN THE CIRCLE OF MAGIC QUARTET

Outcast Trader Daja, along with her fellow mages-in-training, journeys from Winding Circle to the Gold Ridge Mountains, where drought threatens widespread famine. There, Daja creates an astonishing object: a living metal vine. A caravan of Traders covets the vine, and Daja's dealings with her former people reawaken a longing for familiar ways.

Daja must choose -- should she return to the Traders, or remain with the Winding Circle folk who have become her family?
