About this title

Review:

Praise for "Sati"

"The ancient hope for redemption is recast in this sprightly contemporary parable, the first adult novel from a bestselling author of young adult fiction"--"Publishers Weekly"

"[A] carefully and sparingly written fantasy..."Sati" could be a valuable addition to a growing library of multicultural literature for high school students. Although its characters are not from minorities, it will make a fine introduction to non-Christian religious beliefs, for Sati's philosophy and persona is based on a mixture of Buddhist, Hindu, and other spiritual thought."--"School Library Journal"""
