| Synopsis | Beauty, magic, and drama intertwine in this magical young-adult Snow White-esque fairy tale set in the land of Ayortha, where people express their joys, sorrows, and feelings through song. The story follows the adventures of Ava, a 15-year-old innkeeper’s daughter. Considered incredibly ugly because of her height, dark hair, and wide face in a land of blond people, Ava is ashamed of her looks, but her mesmerizing, golden voice transfixes anyone lucky enough to hear her sing. When Ava finds herself at the palace, chosen by the new Queen Ivi as a lady-in-waiting, her life is transformed, but a host of problems follow. Love, ogres, treason, and more await the eager Gail Carson Levine fan. A 2006 Publishers Weekly Book of the Year.

| | Industry reviews | "Fans of ELLA ENCHANTED (1997) will find Aza a kind-hearted, spirited heroine who uses her wit and voice to rescue the kingdom and who learns the hard way that beauty isn't everything. A song-filled, fast-paced fairy tale."
(08/01/2006)
"In an alluring companion novel that some readers may argue even surpasses ELLA ENCHANTED, Levine gives a visionary rendering of the Snow White tale that challenges conventional ideas of beauty."
(07/24/2006)
"Aza is a worthy addition to the growing list of tough fantasy girls who use their talents wisely, never wait for someone else to save them, and, if there is any time left over in their busy lives, always get their man."
