For many readers, Forge" "will be one of the best novels they have
ever read" (starred review from Kirkus Reviews")
Blistering winds. Bitter cold. And the hope of a new future. In
this compelling sequel to "Chains," a National Book Award Finalist
and winner of the Scott O'Dell Award for Historical Fiction,
acclaimed author Laurie Halse Anderson shifts perspective from
Isabel to Curzon and brings to the page the tale of what it takes
for runaway slaves to forge their own paths in a world of
obstacles--and in the midst of the American Revolution.
The Patriot Army was shaped and strengthened by the desperate
circumstances of the Valley Forge winter. This is where Curzon the
boy becomes Curzon the young man. In addition to the hardships of
soldiering, he lives with the fear of discovery, for he is an
escaped slave passing for free. And then there is Isabel, who is
also at Valley Forge--against her will. She and Curzon have to sort
out the tangled threads of their friendship while figuring out what
stands between the two of them and true freedom.
